World Environment Day Webinar & Workshop - Youth Activism and the EU

We are combining World Environment Day celebrations with the upcoming European election in our free online webinar of the 5th of June!

The event is open to all (aged 18+) but is specifically targeted to young people (aged 18-30).

Through a mix of presentations, roundtable discussions and workshops with people all over Europe, you will gain invaluable and thought-provoking insight on topics including:

• The UN Sustainable Development Goals
• Ideas for sustainable cities now and in the future
• Eco friendly practices for sustainable tourism
• Political activism beyond the ballot box

During the webinar, you will also have the chance to voice your opinions and discuss some real-life examples of sustainable practices, as well as take part in a range of activities that increase your ability to affect positive change in the EU.

The event is part of the Erasmus+ youth projects “Up-Root Eco-Democracy” and "Eco-Tourism For Social Entrepreneurship Health & Well-Being".

Let's unite our voices and actions for a greener, more sustainable world. Together, we can make a difference!
