Do you want to be part of a global movement of young agents for change? If so, the YOUth Reconnecting with Nature webinar is for you.

Ahead of the launch of the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration on World Environment Day on June 5, this webinar aims to raise awareness about this 10-year drive to heal our planet, and inspire young people to join the #GenerationRestoration movement.

Organised by the UNEP Brussels Office, the Food and Agricultural Organization’s Liaison Office in Brussels and Youth & Environment Europe, the webinar will include a presentation of the GEO-6 for Youth Report, a full interactive e-publication that shows how youth have the power to bring about transformative change if they act now.

Check out this video to learn more about the Report.

Speakers at the webinar will include Lefteris Arapakis, UNEP Young Champion of the Earth for Europe. Read more about how he founded Greece’s first professional fishing school to teach fishers to be more eco-friendly and help collect discarded plastic in the Mediterranean.

When: 17 May from 2.30 pm -- 4 pm CET, Brussels.
