About European Green Activist Training

This EGAT programme is organised by the Green European Foundation with the support of Sustainable Development Forum Green Window and with the financial support of the European Parliament to the Green European Foundation.

During the EGAT course, you will learn about Green values, meet politicians and experts working at the frontline of fighting for positive change, and of course connect with plenty of other like-minded young people!

The course will give you insights into the political decision-making processes on the national and European levels, develop your skills as an activist to enact societal change, and explore how Green values promote more equal and sustainable societies.

The training course will be comprised of three training sessions in Croatia, an online course on Green Learning , and then culminating with a one-week study trip to Brussels to visit the European Institutions alongside EGAT participants from other countries.

We encourage people from across Croatia and from all backgrounds to apply to take part.
