European Climate Pact Annual Event: Together in Action, Brussels, Belgium

This annual event was a celebration of the progress made towards the goals set in the EU Green Deal and an opportunity to explore possibilities on how sustainability leaders from all around EU (that are aknowledged as Climate Pact Partners and Ambassadors by the EU Commission) can work together to build a climate-neutral and resilient future. Plus, some activities and sessions were organized, to inspire and drive even more climate action. In this context, together with other partner organizations from accross the EU, I organized and was a speaker in the "Youth and children leading climate action: Education for a sustainable future " session, where we discussed about different tools and approaches that can be used to empower children and youth to take active roles in the climate action, while also presenting We4All's environmental program.

EU Green Diplomacy Week

We’re thrilled to announce that the Serbian YCDF Council attended the panel discussion on “Green Jobs, Skills, and Education” during the EU Green Diplomacy Week in Belgrade.  

This crucial event brought together experts, policymakers, and youth leaders to address the urgent need for specialized training and education to equip the workforce with green skills and promote sustainable practices. The panel underscored the importance of empowering young people to lead the green transition and drive meaningful change in the Western Balkans.  

We extend our gratitude to the EU4Green project and the European Union Delegation to Serbia for organizing this impactful event and fostering collaboration on environmental sustainability. Together, we’re building a greener, more inclusive future for all.

UNICEF Greece & ELIAMEP Report Presentation

The Greek YCDF Council attended the presentation of the groundbreaking report, “Climate Landscape Analysis for Children in Greece: The Effects of Climate Change on Child Well-Being and the Institutional Framework in Greece,” jointly developed by UNICEF Greece and ELIAMEP.  

The report sheds light on the profound impact of climate change on children's lives in Greece and examines the existing policies and institutional frameworks addressing these challenges. It serves as a vital call to action for stronger, child-centered climate policies and sustainable development initiatives.  

Events like these are a reminder of our shared responsibility to protect the most vulnerable—our children—while building resilient communities prepared for the challenges ahead.  

A big thank you to George Dikaios-member of the YCDF Advisors Council, UNICEF Greece and ELIAMEP for driving this essential dialogue and providing a platform to explore actionable steps forward. Together, we can create a safer, healthier world for the next generation. 

Climate Change Hub Greece

Representatives of the Greek YCDF Council attended the Climate Change Hub Greece working breakfast hosted by the Athens Democracy Forum.

This year's theme emphasized the crucial role of local authorities in climate action. We had a productive discussion with the Minister of Digital Transformation, the VP of the Central Union of Municipalities of Greece and the General Secretary of the Ministry of Interior. 

Special thanks to Maria Logotheti and the CC Hub for the opportunity to participate as part of civil society, highlighting the role and responsibility of citizens in guiding local communities toward sustainability.
