| Abstract |
The European Green Deal is a blueprint for a more sustainable life throughout the European Union and its member states. It is based on environmental protection and sensible consumption. However, implementing Green Deal policies necessitates the participation of local populations who are affected by pollution. This paper presents the significance that youth hold in contributing to the implementation and development of the European Green Deal and the circular economy as well as the key role they play in local self-government in order that the aims of the European Green Deal be achieved. To do so, three pilot studies (29 youth were engaged) and one comprehensive research (201 youth were engaged) were conducted on university and secondary school students in Republic of Serbia in 2022. Based on these, youth were found to not possess environmentally friendly habits, as well as adequate education on sustainability challenges. Theoretical and practical implication has been discussed. |
