Moien in Luxembourg!

Moien in Luxembourg!

Since we started youth4planet Luxembourg with the support of the ministry of environment, the Luxembourg activities have become a major driver of concept development and practice. Over the course of five years we organized film and storytelling processes in almost every school or youth context and implemented the idea of action teams in the country.

Global Events

Luxemburg around the World

Youth4planet became a regular contributor of ideas and workshops at sustainability events like the BNE Foire, ClimateExpo. We represented the country at international conferences like COP26 in Glasgow, COP27 in Egypt, GP2022 in Bali or organized film challenges like the earthbeat challenge as an international format as well.

Luxembourg as a role model

Action Teams

Youth action teams will become our new model for action countrywide. They can be activated wherever young people come together, learn together, have fun together. Y4P supports them with tools for creative action and helps to develop their “future” skills like storytelling, leadership, responsibility. Peer teaching and coaching can now happen in every community. Mobile media bikes are enabling local dialogue about common values or concrete ideas for transformation towards the SDG goals.

Currently we start working with 10-12 year old students in primary schools up to the age of university students. Guided by our principles we empower cross-gender and cross-generational cooperation.

Events

Festivals and presentations

Regularly the films and projects of our participants are presented at climate fairs or local or regional film festivals. Several have won awards. We train students to facilitate local events in their communities and develop ideas for climate action and communication.

Co-creating the future

Co-operation

Our goal is to support other NGOs and organizations with our storytelling methods and tools. Co-operation is key to reach the global goals together, nationally and internationally.
