Why are we doing this
This October, the EU took a bold step by adopting the revised Ambient Air Quality Directive (AAQD), setting one of the most progressive air quality standards globally. Now, we’re bringing together young climate advocates to drive meaningful change across the EU!
What do we have planned?
Join us for two dynamic sessions—a virtual workshop and an in-person event in Brussels—where we’ll cover everything you need to know about the new AAQD and empower young voices for impactful advocacy.
Online Workshop
Date: 28th of November 2024
Time: 17:30 CET
In-Person Workshop
Date: POSTPONED to January 2025
Location: Brussels
