The EU Future is Climate
We’re building a community of 27 young Europeans (age 18 to 35) ready to discuss, defend and make recommendations regarding Europe’s climate present and future. Will you join us?
What is the EU FUTURE IS CLIMATE?
The EU Future is Climate is a groundbreaking initiative designed to empower young people across the EU to co-create climate policy. Based on the Spanish experience, this project brings together a European Climate Metaforum with young representatives from all over the EU.
Together, they engage in training, dialogue, and consensus-building, culminating in actionable policy recommendations.
In a world constantly inundated with misinformation, polarization, hate speech, and clickbait videos, we need more spaces for calm and nuanced debates. It’s what the complexity of the climate crisis needs. Climate action requires everyone to step up, and who better than young people to do so?
The EU Future is Climate is not just about speaking up; it’s about developing critical thinking on a topic, it’s about listening and contributing actively to debates, and it’s about building shared solutions in an increasingly polarized environment. What would the topic be?​
