🌍✨ In early February, the European Youth Centre Budapest became a hub for ideas, collaboration, and youth-driven change.
26 young people from across the Council of Europe member states gathered for the study session “Exploring Planetary Health: Climate, Rights, and Participation.” Through debates, simulations, peer learning, and expert discussions, they explored the links between the climate crisis, public health, and democratic participation.
Beyond knowledge, the week focused on empowerment. Young people strengthened their advocacy skills and discovered how their voices can influence policy, shape decisions, and drive change in their communities.
The message at the end of the week was clear: planetary health solutions are not possible without meaningful youth participation. 💚
