YES-Europe
YES-Europe (Young Leaders in Energy and Sustainability) is a community created to empower students and young professionals across Europe with the mission of catalyzing the energy transition by creating an environment where youth are given a space to develop ideas, take on responsibility, build their local community and act for change.
Within the focus scope of ETH Zürich, we aim to engage all relevant stakeholders in a reflecting process. Through this research project, we’ll research, prototype and design sustainable solutions to integrate sustainability at the core of the university.
