WWF-Austria/Generation Earth, Austria
Part of the WWF global network, WWF Austria supports the network’s mission:
“To stop the degradation of the planet’s natural environment and to build a future in which humans live in harmony with nature, by:
- conserving the world’s biological diversity
- ensuring that the use of renewable natural resources is sustainable
- promoting the reduction of pollution and wasteful consumption.”
In 2010, WWF-Austria founded a non-formal youth leadership and empowerment program called Generation Earth. It focuses on young adults ages 15-25 and offers various programs and projects. Generation Earth uses a participatory approach to developing program goals, events and action projects. Thus, youth are truly involved in the decision-making and developing and offering trainings through peer-to-peer workshops. Through this program, WWF-Austria has been involved in a number of international youth projects.
WWF is committed to protecting the most ecologically important wild rivers in Europe!
