The CLIMentines project

group of people in the nature

The CLIMentines project represents a pioneering initiative aimed at fostering a new generation of environmentally conscious and politically active young Europeans, aged 18 to 30. At its core, the project seeks to empower youth to take a stand in the global dialogue on climate action and democratic engagement. This initiative is rooted in the belief that young people are not only the leaders of tomorrow but also the change-makers of today. The project unfolds across six European countries, bringing together seven diverse organizations in a robust partnership. This transnational collaboration reflects the project’s commitment to unity, inclusivity, and shared learning. By harnessing the collective strength of these varied entities, CLIMentines aims to create a dynamic and impactful network.

Throughout its 2-year duration, the project will deliver:

Scoping study released in English
