Are you a passionate climate activist or a real nature-lover? Do you often find yourself in difficult, even aggressive discussions on climate change, climate justice or nature conservation? Do you often try to debunk misinformation but then get discouraged by more experienced and manipulative right-wing discourse?
Being a young climate activist is especially challenging - but we feel you, and we want to help you become stronger and more equipped to handle the pressure of being a climate justice hero!
That is why we are continuing our cycle with "Keeping Sane within Climate Activism" to help you discover more about emotional control, negotiating and conflict resolution during debates. We are going to identify the most common challenges young activists face and create tools to help them navigate these issues in real life. Join us for this new activity! :)
International Young Naturefriends have decided to dedicate the year 2023 to giving young people the tools to tackle right wing populist currents in the environmental and climate justice movement with a cycle called “Extremism, a Danger for Climate Justice?”.
We will welcome international participants during the 3 remaining activities throughout the year. We are looking for passionate young naturefriends, young activists, youth leaders and workers.
"Keeping Sane within Climate Activism" is the second activity of the 2023 cycle “Extremism, a Danger for Climate Justice?”.
The following activities will take place:
- In Germany, from the 20th to the 24th of June,
- In Italy, from the 20th to the 24th of September.
