We believe that the representation of diverse voices in the environmental youth movement is the key to good policymaking. (Under)representation of young people from rural communities, minorities and vulnerable groups affects the design, implementation and effectiveness of policies. Facing the climate emergency, we want to make sure that those who feel its consequences the most have space in decision-making and know that their voice matters. With this project, we want to engage with young people locally, while empowering and connecting youth internationally.

We created this guide to help young people and youth organizations learn about grassroots movements. Inside, you’ll find historical examples and tips on how to start your own movement, turning local issues into global ones. We believe everyone has the power to create change.
We hope this publication will be a valuable resource for you, whether you’re looking to start your own grassroots movement or support an existing one. Whether you’re an individual or part of a youth organisation, you can help make a bigger impact and change the way things are done.

Uniting Youth for Ecotourism
Share This Toolkit
The publication “Uniting youth for ecotourism” contains tools and framework on eco-tourism, specifically in the context of environmental youth work.
The publication is an outcome up of the international training course with the same name. The training course was organised by YEE in November 2017 with the aim of exploring youth involvement and participation in ecotourism activities. In the training session, the subject of ecotourism was explored, and strategies were developed to infvolve young people with their local communities through organising ecotourism events and activities.
