Global Young Greens
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Global Young Greens (GYG) is an emerging universal organisation supporting and consolidating the efforts of young people working towards social justice, ecological sustainability, grassroots democracy and peace. GYG is a joint project of over 70 youth organisations and many hundreds of individuals, including the Federation of Young European Greens, Asia Pacific Young Greens Network, Cooperation and Development Network Eastern Europe, Young Volunteers for the Environment and others. GYG is now a non-profit organisation under Belgian law.
The first conference of the Global Young Greens was held in Sydney, Australia prior to the 2001 Global Greens conference, and the big foundation conference will be held in January 2007 in Nairobi, Kenya.
