In their own words

“European Grandparents for Climate (EGC) is a federation of national organizations of grandparents and senior citizens campaigning for the climate. EGC’s activities focus on politics and policy, on raising public awareness of climate issues, and on strengthening the EGC community. With regard to politics and policy, the aim is to bring the actions of national organizations to the European level.”

“The Board regularly sends open letters, position statements and appeals to the European Commission and to MEPs. EGC also takes part in national events and demonstrations. EGC’s member organizations carry out – often through local groups – national, regional and local campaigns, aimed at politicians, but also at influencing public opinion and citizens’ behaviour. There is strong support for youth organizations and campaigns for the climate. The European umbrella organization reinforces this through the exchange of knowledge, insights and innovative practices.”
