The online event - Activism and Optimism with Local Politicians - is aimed at 14–27-year-olds and will include MPs Bim Afolami and Daisy Cooper, plus Green Party councillor Simon Grover.
It takes place on Wednesday, June 2 as part of the 2021 St Albans Sustainability Festival.
Jess Simmons,18, one of the event organisers and a member of the Youth Advisory Group for Sustainable St Albans said: “As a young person, I and many other young constituents see local politicians policies on climate change as the most important factor to inform our voting decisions.
