Deadline: 8th September, 2010
Dear E-pao!,
I wanted to introduce you to a youth summit that IYCN(Indian Youth Climate Network) is organizing for our young friends in Eastern India.
ONergy, together with VSSU and Indian Youth Climate Network (
IYCN) is organizing a camp for youngsters in the Eastern region of India! The camp is envisioned as a venue to share ideas about sustainable practices that can be applied by every participant in their own locality/surrounding.
The camp will include, among other things, workshops on sustainable energy, waste and water solutions like building solar home lighting systems; sessions on being an effective environmental journalist; theatre workshops and policy discussions. The camp also includes interesting activities like tree plantation drives and a visit to the fast receding Sunderbans.
To provide a hands on experience to youth in east India, this summit will focus on practical solutions to climate change and energy issues.
The application form for the summit can be found here
We would be delighted if you could share this information with your youth network,friends and urge them to apply for the summit. And also if you could attend the summit where IYCN along with other organizations would be present to discuss further ways to address this global issue. (Note that the participation fee of Rs 900 will be waived once we raise adequate funds for the summit and our efforts are well underway)
