Young Explorers Program — Empowering Young Changemakers
Ten years empowering young people to fall in love with wild nature infront of their doorsteps and to become changemakers for biodiversity and climate
For over ten years I've helped lead #AbenteuerSchwarzwald / the Young Explorers Program. I facilitated Design-Thinking Workshops empowering young people to drive change for biodiversity and climate themselves. Since 2021 in a yearly exchange we bring them together with German corporate leaders, allowing to raise the voice of the youth.
