🇮🇹 🇫🇷 🇩🇪 Tri-national programme «Youth for Energy Futures» 🇮🇹 🇫🇷 🇩🇪

👉 The "Youth for Energy Futures" program aims to enable European youth to identify solutions to meet this challenge by giving the opportunity to a group of 12 young adults from France, Germany and Italy to participate in a process of reflection nourished by study trips to their three countries. Field visits and meetings with committed actors will allow them to discover the diversity of contexts in which the socially just energy and ecological transition must take place, to grasp in a concrete way the questions that arise in each country and to imagine solutions.

⚡ YES-DC Event "Sustainable Energy Transition: The Rhetorics and Realities" | 27 November 18:30 CEST ⚡

👉 Our Member YES-DC is organising a conference to examine how the rhetorics of sustainable energy transition are perceived to formulate a clearer vision and commitment: is the current happening in the real world far away from fanciful energy transition graphs and analyses? How much of the news, goals and promises are feasible? Is solar energy carbon-neutral? How ‘green’ is green hydrogen? Can climate goals and plants of coals go hand-in-hand?

📆 27.11.2022 18:30 CEST
🌐 Online streaming is available for registered attendees. Please contact the secretariat: info@yes-dc.org for this option.
