At 19, Shahin Billah, from Patakhali village in Bangladesh has already witnessed four climate disasters. The latest disaster is the massive floods that have inundated one-third of Bangladesh. Shahin has been leading on delivering aid to flood-hit communities and regularly providing flood updates via his [Twitter](https://twitter.com/shahin_billah) account. On 25th September, Shahin led his community to join the Friday’s for Future’s Global climate strike protests in Patakhali and on the coast of Satkhira.
