Video on Earth Charter Network Meeting on YouTube – made by Earth Charter youth activists!

Earth Charter Initiative’s youth activists helped stimulate the formation of the new Youth Task Force at an important Earth Charter Network Meeting in Amsterdam, Netherlands in December 2008. Nearly 30 youth, including many Youth Leadership Members, from all over Europe and Brazil, Canada, Costa Rica, Indonesia, the United States, and Zimbabwe participated in all Task Force working groups and contributed, in particular, to the one on youth. In addition to their strategic input, a Project Team of youth participants captured the spirit of the meeting in an original video, shown during the Closing Ceremony.
