Youth Together For Arctic Futures - The EU is supporting a new project to empower Arctic youth to influence policies that affect them, and to help foster exchanges between European and Arctic youth.
Youth around the world will live with the consequences of climate change, biodiversity loss, and environmental degradation. The Arctic, as a region, and Europe, as a continent, are warming several times faster than the global average. The impacts of climate change are already felt all cross the Arctic and Europe. Current and future decisions by policymakers at all levels shape the severity of these consequences, and the EU is committed to ensure that future generations have a liveable and thriving planet. Young people want to have greater agency to act and influence the policies that affect them. For this they are in need of the skills, opportunities, and connections to advocate for good climate and environmental policies.
