Meet us at the LCOY

As part of the Local Conference of Youth (LCOY) 2025, this workshop explores how misinformation and simplified narratives also circulate within the climate movement itself – and asks whether a “climate populism” might be needed to reach people outside the usual bubble. Together, Frederik Metje and Fine Hornbostel will invite the participants to question their own communication habits and discuss how climate communication can reach the masses.

IMAGINE TOMORROW, THEN CHANGE TODAY: HOPE AS A FORCE FOR CHANGE

Our world is changing faster than ever. Climate change, fragile democracies, rising inequality — old certainties are crumbling, and fresh ideas are urgently needed in the face of these and other challenges today. The Summer Academy Europe 2025 brings together students, educators, and young adults (up to age 35) for an inspiring, interdisciplinary exchange on these critical challenges.
