What do you think is most important for tomorrow? Social change often starts off small. For some, it begins with a change in individual consumer behavior. But is it enough to eat vegan burgers and buy a sweater at a thrift store? Or do we need a bigger change in economics and politics? Who decides on these issues in Europe - and can the same rules apply to everyone? How can we create a future where all people are considered - regardless of where they live in Europe, what age, gender or history they have? We invite young adults to develop ideas as visionaries on how we can shape a social-ecological change in Europe in a democratic and just way.
