Advocacy Working Group


We want to empower young people to meaningfully engage in EU and UN decision making structures. To lobby on climate, environmental and social issues. And bring a youth perspective to the EU and UN decision making structures.

We participate in UN meetings such as the UNFCCC climate summits (COP). We lobby for topics such as Just Transition, Sustainable Development Goals and biodiversity, online and in physical meetings. We will provide young people the opportunity to play an active role in the EU and UN decision making through participation in the process. For the preparation of these meetings regular online meetings will take place and participants will be supported throughout the whole process.
