Join us in Kuching, Sarawak from 24–26 June 2026 for the Rainforest Youth Summit (RAYS) — a gathering that brings together young people, Indigenous knowledge holders, scientists, creatives, and community leaders from across ASEAN and beyond. Over three days, we will learn from one another, share lived experiences, and explore grounded, practical pathways for environmental care, cultural continuity, and community wellbeing.
RAYS 2026 is held in one of the world’s most important rainforest regions and shaped by the knowledge, values, and cultures of the communities who call this land home. Delegates can expect a warm, welcoming environment guided by respect, curiosity, and shared responsibility.
RAYS is committed to creating a safe, inclusive, and accessible experience for all participants. If you require accommodations or specific support to attend, please reach out via: support@rainforestyouthsummit.com
Accessibility details, quiet rooms, prayer spaces, and other possible support options will be listed closer to the summit date.
By registering for RAYS 2026, you agree to follow the RAYS Terms and Conditions.
We respectfully acknowledge that this summit takes place on the ancestral lands of the Indigenous peoples of Sarawak, including the Iban, Bidayuh, Orang Ulu, and Malay communities. We honour their enduring connection to this land, their cultures, and their traditions, and recognise their continued contributions to the richness of Sarawak's heritage.
