Leading into the weekend, this momentum was already underway, as students engaged in a dynamic exchange with partners from Climate Words, continuing their collaborative work on The Rosenberg Youth Manifesto, first activated by our students’ work on Urban Refuge at Climate Week New York and continued during the week activities at The Rosenberg House Davos during the World Economic Forum.

A distinguished panel of guests from industry, policy, and innovation engaged closely with each presentation, offering thoughtful feedback on relevance, feasibility, and future potential. We were grateful for the valuable insights shared by Yuliana Yalynska, Multilateral Affairs Lead at Takeda and former Project Fellow at WEF, Antonia Martina Durisch, President of IFED Global, Murielle Antille, Managing Director of Manpower Group, Gordian Berger, CTO at Legartis, Nikola Zic, Head of Product and Digital Transformation at movon AG, Michele Doronzo, Investor, Head of Investment Modelling at Re Asset Management and former UBS, Michael Carrighan, Senior Management for Special Projects, PI Group, and former Hyatt Group and Memberships & Attendance at WEF, Boris Smiljić, CEO & Founder, EleaTek, Valentin Abend, Project Director, and Pamela Elizarraras Acitores, Co-Founder & Creative Director of Climate Words. Their perspectives enriched the student sprints, turning the showcase into a meaningful exchange of ideas.

Alongside these presentations, The Rosenberg Youth Manifesto, authored by our student hosts, continued to take shape as a forward-looking declaration of what must happen next, and who must be involved, to drive impactful societal solutions and scalable pathways for the future. Scheduled for publication this spring and to be shared with global stakeholders, it marks an important milestone in amplifying student voice, agency, and purpose.
