Youth Potential to (Un)-Shift Global Environmental Politics
28 November 2024, 15:00 CET; Room 7.02, Vening Meineszgebouw A, Utrecht University
Youth, as liminal actors, form a very specific group within civil society, that has recently, with the Fridays for Future movement, loudly entered the global scene on environmental issues. In line of this entry of youth in global politics, this presentation will precisely discuss their potential to shift and un-shift environmental problems across a range of major international negotiation processes on climate change, biodiversity and the sustainable development goals.
