Youth Encounter on Sustainability (YES)
Inspired by a set of questions arising from the gap between the 20th
century roots of Agenda 21 and the potential for putting it into
action in the 21st century, YES brings together a diverse group of
motivated graduate and upper level undergraduate students from
around the world to intensive and stimulating discussions on
sustainable development. Together, YES participants examine expert
knowledge, share diverse cultural and disciplinary experiences,
collaborate in multi-disciplinary working groups, and define their
roles as future academics and scientists in the process of
sustainable development.
The AGS established YES as part of
its dedication to educate a new generation of leaders committed to
meeting the challenges of sustainable development. YES is now hosted
by the ETHags Center for Sustainability at ETH Zurich.
Applications for each summer's YES sessions are generally
due in March. Check the YES Website for current schedule information and
further program details. Full reports on recent sessions are
available on our YES
Reports page. |
