EGAT session on EU politics in Finland pt.1
The Green European Foundation is hosting a stimulating training in Finland for young Green activists, in collaboration with Visio and Federation of Green Youth and Students of Finland.
This training is a part of our transnational project “European Green Activists Training”, and will provide opportunities for 25 participants to learn more about the institutions of the European Union, Green politics and sustainable development policies.
As an additional element of this training, the participants will gain an exclusive access to our online course IMPACT EUROPE – which will enhance their critical understanding of the European Union, provide them with an analytical overview of the Green movement in the context of contemporary politics at the European level, as well as with insights into ways of generating political impact as a European citizen.
The EU Session
The Green European Foundation will contribute with a special session with the focus on Europe, the EU and the Greens on 2-4 November 2018 in Helsinki.
Programme
The participants will meet and discuss with representatives from European Green Party, Young Federalists, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Ministry of Finance and will learn for example about EU budget, lobbying and the EU presidency of Finland.
The EU training session will be accompanied by training session on national politics and culminate in a study visit to Brussels in Spring 2019, in which the participants will complement their training by experiencing the European political dimension first-hand.
