Young European Greens – Apply Now for Summer Camp International Preparatory Team Members

The Federation of Young European Greens is thrilled to announce an open call for members of the international Preparatory Team for the “Summer Camp: Policies of Today and Tomorrow”. This exciting event will be held from 26–31 July 2025 in Poland.

Over six days, participants will delve into the legal and political aspects of policies at both the European and national/regional levels. The camp will cover how policies are made, methods for evaluating them, and offer activities that closely examine concrete regulatory proposals. Attendees will also create their own social justice policy assessment projects, applying the skills they’ve learned to support the FYEG’s social justice campaign.

Building on the knowledge gained from the European Lab: Social Justice, Here and Now, the event will connect human and animal rights with environmental justice for a comprehensive, modern understanding of social justice.

The camp will be divided into three key learning blocks, including introductory sessions, skill-building workshops, thematic discussions, and opportunities for creative project development.

Objectives of European Greens

Through this event, we aim to:

• Explore what policies are, their components, and what makes them effective or ineffective.
• Provide space for assessing regulatory solutions in various policy areas, evaluating the pros and cons of different legislative and political decisions.
• Support participants in identifying policy flaws and proposing improvements through critical analysis.
