Webinar Series: For the Young, the Queer, the Feminists

About the Event:

The Green European Foundation, with the support of CDNEE, has brought together young green activists from across Europe to explore artivism and its use for gender activism, working together towards anti-discrimination and equal opportunities for men and women in the Eastern European context.

Selected participants are completing an extensive online training programme that tackles feminist and queer theory and its links to Green ideology and politics, as well as skill development and creation of impactful artistic outputs. This webinar series forms part of that training, and is also open to viewers from the general public.

The ultimate objective of the project is to support young green activists and politicians to gain new knowledge, increase their own visibility and be empowered to deliver their messages.
