YRE in Katowice COP 24
Going to a conference, youth gathering or local environmental event?
Use our YRE Event Guide and Workbook to prepare questions, capture what you discover and share the stories that matter to you. You do not need to be an experienced reporter to get started.
Get ready: Download the YRE Event Guide for practical tips on preparing questions, finding people to interview and exploring different perspectives.
Capture your experience: Use the YRE Event Workbook before, during and after your event to record your questions, notes, discoveries and reflections.
Share with FEE: Send us your completed workbook, selected pages or event notes. You do not need a finished article or film to take part. We want to hear what caught your attention, whose perspectives you heard and what you think should happen next.
Are you a YRE alumni who is looking for more?
Then you need to become a YRE international champion. We need experienced YRE participants like you to help educators, young people and our FEE national offices from across the globe, to take their YRE environmental reporting and leadership skills to the next level.
Below are just some of the ways you can help us:
Take over our international SoMe channels
This is a fun chance to make your mark on our international YRE social media channels (Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn) and share your environmental stories with a global audience.
Create new online resources to support fellow young reporters
Help out fellow reporters by creating guides, resources, tutorials with tips and tricks on how to interview sources, do research, spot greenwashing and much more.
Translation of existing YRE materials to help reach a broader audience
Ensure that all YRE resources accurately reflect cultural nuances and avoid misunderstandings. And make sure the resources are accessible to people with disabilities.
Share your expertise as a guest writer for our global education newsletter
Share your personal experiences of environmental issues and how you have overcome them in your community. Offer tips on how to act on environmental issues and showcase youth-led initiatives.
