GENERAL 14-18 AUG ISTANBUL ASSEMBLY Financialactivity Conditions report 2018-2019and guidelines Activity Report 2018–2019 In the second part of 2018 and the first part of 2019 we implemented diverse activities, drafted resolutions, hosted progressive events, ran the campaign for the 2019 European elections and led many other processes that are defined in this document. FYEG’s work is taking place at a time where Europe is in a turbulent situation. We have a holistic, radical political vision of Europe, where we show the interlinkages between different issues - equality, sustainability, social justice, democracy. When it comes to political visions, we are a progressive think tank within the Green movement. With the capacities of the Executive Committee but also the Campaign Team, Prep Teams and several Working Groups, we continue to come up with radical ideas and push for change through in person meetings with various actors, state-of-the-art communication and impactful actions. Young Green Candidates had several, changemaking electoral successes in the European Elections, as well on local and national level - in Belgium, Ireland, Luxembourg, Finland and Germany. Many Young Greens (especially many young women* and including young people with a migrant background) were elected to local councils or parliaments around Europe. Besides, we see more and more youth standing up for what they think is right and taking their future in their own hands. A remarkable example are the climate strikes that spread all over Europe and mobilised tens of thousands of young people, mostly teenagers and high school students. These are important determinants for the future of Europe and of an ecological movements like us.
