From Connection to Commitment: Inspiring Youth Action

In a world marked by climate urgency and growing inequality, supporting young people to move from awareness to action has never been more essential. The Connected Schools project builds on Friendship’s long-standing work in Bangladesh—one of the countries most impacted by climate change—where the organization has been at the forefront of implementing innovative, integrated, community-led solutions
Through meaningful connections between students in Bangladesh and Europe, Connected Schools goes beyond exchange—it nurtures responsibility, empathy, and long-term engagement. By listening to each other’s realities and learning across borders, young people are encouraged not only to understand global challenges, but to commit to addressing them.
Marking the launch of a new edition of the project, this event is a moment of reflection and inspiration: a space where youth voices take center stage, where commitment is shaped through dialogue, and where education becomes a catalyst for change. It highlights how connected learning can transform curiosity into responsibility and solidarity into action.
Join us to discover how global connections can inspire lasting commitment, and how the next generation is stepping forward to shape a more just, climate-resilient future—together.
