UNEP’s Global Youth Retreat is one of the main platforms for cooperation and interaction between UNEP and its youth partners.
It is the vision of the organization to “foster a generation of environmentally conscious citizens who will better influence decision-making processes and act responsilbly to create a sustainable world”.
The fourth TUNZA Global Youth Retreat marked twenty years of cooperation between UNEP and its youth partners from around the world. It took place in Nairobi, where young people will rub shoulders with decision makers and environmentalists from around the world.
Young people participated at the Global Civil Society Forum as a major group, and also delivered a Statement to the Governing Council / Global Ministerial Environment Forum (GC/GMEF), where they voiced their concerns and promoted their perspectives regarding the main thematic areas in discussion.
