Ramallah, November 26-27, 2024

Palestinian youth took center stage in shaping a sustainable future at the recent two-day event, "Greening Palestine from a Youth Perspective," held in collaboration with the South Hebron Chamber of Commerce & Industry, North Hebron Chamber of Commerce & Industry, and Sharek Youth Forum. Organized under the EU-funded Youth Economic Empowerment in Palestine (YEP) project, the event brought together young leaders, experts, and policy decision-makers to drive forward a vision for a greener Palestine.

The first day, November 26, featured a dynamic technical workshop where youth and experts collaborated to develop actionable recommendations for advancing green policies. The following day, November 27, saw a high-level policy dialogue with key stakeholders, including government representatives, to discuss the youth-led proposals and chart a path toward a sustainable green economy. The energy, passion, and innovative ideas shared throughout the event were truly inspiring.

This dialogue marks a significant step forward in empowering Palestinian youth as leaders in the green economy and advancing sustainable development in the region. Together, we are building a greener, more resilient future for Palestine.
