Description of the event/ remarks:
„We need a resolution!!!…”

„We need a resolution!!!…”

We don’t like propaganda. We want to exchange knowledge. We want neutral education. Believing that intelligent and sensible resolutions have to be based upon true and comprehensive information, we want to look at the scientifical background, the consequences and the solutions of global environmental change from different perspectives.

The cooperation with Egea (European Geography Association), another students network, allows us to combine the "experts"-knowledge of geographers with the interdisciplinary perspective of AEGEE.
