🇪🇺 Last Thursday Generation Climate Europe (GCE) joined the Future Generations Initiative and representatives from the European Institutions and civil society at European Parliament for a wonderful event, "Europe for the Future: Developing Tools to Build an EU Fit for Future Generations" hosted by Lídia Pereira MEP. 💡 We participated in a joint panel with members from the #FitForFutureGenerations coalition, highlighting the fact that although proximate, future and young people are separate categories and require different protection mechanisms. 💭 But our discussion went much deeper: we explored the necessity for the EU to recognize legal obligations towards future generations, in line with the UN #PactForTheFuture, and discussed existing good practices, such as Wales' approach to envisioning and representing the needs of future generations. 👏 With the recent appointment of a commissioner on intergenerational fairness, the time has come for the EU to step up its policies in this vital area.

This week some of our volunteers gathered virtually to celebrate 5 years of Generation Climate Europe (GCE).

🎉 It's official! EU Member States are gearing up to implement the Nature Restoration Law! 🌍 We’re excited to share that the #RestoreNature campaign has launched a comprehensive report to guide Member States in drafting their National Restoration Plans (NRPs), which are due in just two years. The report provides insights to help navigate the legal requirements of the law, focusing on the preparation, drafting, and finalisation of NRPs. The success of the Nature Restoration Law hinges on effective implementation by Member States. We encourage civil society organizations, authorities, and all stakeholders to engage in this vital process. 📥🌱 Download the report now and lets #RestoreNature together! https://lnkd.in/es2Zg62f
