Applications are now closed sorry, for the 2010 Young FoEE Summer Camp.
What is the YFoEE Summer Camp?
The Young FoEE Summer training camp is a five day long learning, networking and knowledge- sharing event for young people in Europe, from the Young FoEE and FoEE network. 50 activists from groups across Europe will take part in workshops and training on the issues we work on, and the skills and techniques that we need and use to build effective campaigns and local groups to carry them out.
There will also be space to share what it is you do in your own country, run your own workshops and skill-shares, learn about the Young FoEE Climate Justice campaign and how to get involved, as well as spend time getting to know other YFoEE activists from across Europe.
The agenda will include workshops and plenaries, training sessions, open space where participants will build the agenda themselves, plus free time and excursions to the Polish countryside.
