About Us

Generation Climate Europe (GCE) is the largest coalition of youth-led networks on climate and environmental issues at the European level. GCE unites the largest youth-led networks, bringing together 381 national organisations across 46 countries in Europe. We are guided by the voices of over 20 million young Europeans. GCE creates a platform for the youth to advocate for a just and green transition in Europe. GCE envisions a system that respects human rights and the planet, that includes the voice of youth and acknowledges our common, but differentiated responsibility in achieving a carbon-neutral and sustainable world.

• Stay up to date with Mobility and Transport EU regulations

About you

• You are organized and reliable.
• You can work remotely and have reliable internet and computer access.
• You have a basic understanding of EU decision-making processes and biodiversity legislation.
• You have a good knowledge of clean mobility issues.
• You are connected to the European context: as we focus on EU advocacy, we welcome applicants with an interest and general understanding of how the EU operates and/or a European background that facilitates this knowledge. It is preferable that you are based within a timezone that is -2 or +2 from CET/CEST as it is our main working territory.

Bonus Points

• You have previous experience in a volunteer organization in a leading role.
• You have previous experience in advocacy.
• Although the core activities of the Working Group take place in the afternoon when most volunteers are available, some of our partners have regular working hours. Therefore, candidates not working full-time jobs might be able to better enjoy the position.
