Young Friends of the Earth Europe

Young FoEE is a grassroots network of young people and youth organisations working together on social and environmental justice issues. We work collectively on a local, national and European level, to inspire other young people, organise great actions and events and get lots of attention in the media, in politics and amongst the general public on what we think as young people in Europe.

If you want to get involved in Young FoEE, or a Young FoE or FoE group in your country, and want the skills, knowledge and experience to help you do so, then the Young FoEE Summer Training Camp is the place for you! Read more...

Action

Young FoEE has been taking action on climate change as their main focus since 2007. Last year we ran the Wrap Up Climate Change action and took part in the UN Climate Convention in Poznan as a European youth delegation inside.

This year to be even more effective we have launched our Act Now project, and selected the 30- person strong 'Young FoE Climate Team' who will be trained and will develop and run activities in the lead up to the next UN climate decision making round in Copenhagen in December.
