Generation Climate Europe is cooperating with the Council of Europe Youth Department, within its Youth for Democracy programme, and hosting the study session “Bridging Generations for a Just Green Transition” at the European Youth Centre in Strasbourg from 29 September to 3 October 2025.
The session brings together young people from across Europe to explore intergenerational fairness, gender equality, and citizen engagement in the context of climate action. Participants are engaging in discussions and workshops on pressing topics such as the impacts of climate change, generational solidarity, colonialism and intergenerational trauma, citizen engagement, and best practices for mobilising communities.
Throughout the week, participants exchange personal stories, and develop concrete action plans aimed at strengthening collaboration between generations for a fair and inclusive green transition. By the end of the study session, they present their proposals and commitments for future initiatives, ensuring that youth voices remain central in shaping climate solutions.
The aim of the study session is to empower young people to advocate for intergenerational fairness, promote gender equality within the green transition, and strengthen citizen engagement. The outcomes will contribute to building long-term cooperation between youth organisations and stakeholders, advancing climate justice through collective action.
