Policy paper on sustainable development
This document sets out the framework for the policy on sustainable development of the European Youth Forum (YFJ) to guide the work undertaken by the Forum on this issue. The European Youth Forum has worked specifically on sustainable development in the past; and moreover, most of the other work of the YFJ is in many ways also connected to sustainable development and contributes to it. It is thus a logical step to develop a comprehensive policy. This paper will thus start with a short context presentation, following the identification of some of the main areas for youth organisation involvement in sustainable development. Finally, there will be a discussion on actions that could be taken by youth organisations and the European Youth Forum.
Read the policy paper adopted at the Council of Members, Prato, Italy, 28-29 April 2006.
