Summer Gathering & AGM: What the Green New Deal means for young people with Alex Phillips

Start: 2020-08-20 20:00:00 UTC Greenwich Mean Time : Dublin, Edinburgh, Lisbon, London (GMT+00:00)

This is a virtual event

Join the South East Young Greens for a discussion with Councillor Alex Phillips on what a Green New Deal would mean for young people. Members and non-members welcome!

Raised by our Green MP Caroline Lucas back in 2008, the Green New Deal is a way we can begin to address the huge economic inequality and environmental challenges or society faces. Since then, the Green Party has been working hard to drive progress on implementing the Green New Deal locally, nationally and across Europe.

Alex Phillips is a Green Party councillor and former mayor of Brighton & Hove. In the 2019 European elections she was elected MEP for the South East of England. During her term she worked with others in the parliament on what a European Green New Deal would look like and what that would mean for us, here in South East England. In this session she'll share with us what a Green New Deal would mean for young people here in the South East and beyond.
