Mélinda Martins represented YEE at the Pan-European Climate Resilience Summit in Vienna. 🌍 She shared how youth networks are key to driving climate action.

It's incredibly inspiring to see science, policy, and youth voices unite for a common goal. We're so proud of her!

Last weekend we gathered in artsy spaces and outdoor places to discuss environmental corruption and the case of the destruction of river ecosystems in Athens, Greece. 🇬🇷

Through non-formal education methods, we examined the Kifissos river ecosystem and the legislation.

The Committee of Ministers decides that 🇨🇭isn't yet doing enough to meet the landmark #KlimaSeniorinnen judgment.
Swiss government has been asked for a proper climate plan, one that delivers the emissions reductions and human rights protections.
