Health and Environment blog for youth |
Dear Friends and Partners,
I aim to write regularly on this blog about my experience as the health and environment youth coordinator at HEAL, and as one of the four official CEHAPE/EEHC international youth representative. As CEHAPE youth representatives, our major task is increasing youth participation by building up the youth environment and health network, and getting ready for the Fifth Ministerial Conference on Environment and Health which will take place in Parma, Italy, on 10-12 March 2010. We will be asking all 53 national delegations to Parma to include a youth representative, and youth will be organising a side event among other things.
To prepare for our side event and full participation in the high level conference, we plan on running a preparatory youth workshop in Brussels to build up capacity and formulate our input to the process. More details in future posts. Youth is not just the future, youth is the present. Youth is becoming a very important part in decision-making process. As you will see in the CEHAPE Youth History blog posts, youth delegates have been participating in high-level ministerial and preparatory meetings since aiming to raise awareness among their peers and networks and ensure their voice is heard. My blog will be one of the first to show youth activities, youth voice and youth opinion to everybody.
If you would like to have a post about your organization or interesting project you could write to me and then I will post it there. |
