Join ECO-UNESCO for an engaging and inspiring evening open to anyone interested in supporting young people to take environmental action; teachers, youth workers, educators, community leaders, or anyone passionate about sustainability and youth empowerment.
Through the Young Environmentalist Awards (YEA) programme, we’ll explore how mentoring can help young people design, lead and deliver impactful environmental projects. The evening will combine learning, reflection and connection and a chance to experience the landscape together.
Attendees are also more than welcome to bring along young people if they wish.
