Young leaders from all around the world worked together to report about challenges and solutions in their local communities. They do so by create articles, taking photos or producing videos targeting issues in the fields of climate change, loss of biodiversity, and pollution.
These winners covered a broad range of environmental issues in their reports relating to: space waste, noise pollution, coral reefs, urban wild meadows, packaging and food waste, fashion and medicine. Importantly all winners not only reported on the issues but also presented thoughtful solutions, and to raise awareness and enable positive action. Congratulations to all YRE 23/24 Competition participants!
