EGAT session on EU politics in Malta pt.1
The Green European Foundation is hosting a stimulating training in Malta for young Green activists, in collaboration with Ceratonia Foundation.
This training is a part of our transnational project “European Green Activists Training”, and will provide opportunities for 11 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 session
The Green European Foundation will contribute with a special session with the focus on the NGO work on a European level and understanding the Green family on 27th October in Sliema.
The participants will meet and discuss with representatives from Federation of Young European Greens, exchange on campaigning experiences as well as get to know each other.
The session will be followed by another session, with a deeper focus on European Union. The course will 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.
