Working with young people

Friends of the Earth have a youth and education network for local group members. People join this network for many reasons:

• To inspire a new generation;
• To help young people make the global to local links;
• To offer advice and guidance to teachers and youth workers.

Some people give talks, run sessions, or help out with environment clubs. Others prefer to offer advice to teachers and governors.
