Environment

Young people are the populational sector most sensitive and committed when it comes to environment and ecology of the region.
Proof of this is the great diversity and actions of juvenile groups that perform the defense and promotion of the environment. As well as the high juvenile membership of different ecologic groups in each country.

Several studies show highest conscience on ecological subjects and the growing predisposition of young men to promote preventive and educative actions on environmental topics.
The Portal of Youth propounds to collaborate with the different juvenile and ecological initiatives, promoting services and spaces to collaborate with the constant growth of  every body’s conscience, information and commitment with our environment.
