Change begins at home: creating a better environment
During the European Year of Creativity and Innovation in 2009 the EPP Group in the Committee of the Regions joined forces with the European People’s Party to encourage young people to channel their ideas about how to create a better environment into an innovative 60-second film. As climate change is one of the biggest challenges for Europe, the EPP Group believes is essential that everyone plays their role and begins to make a change at home. The top three film-makers won €1750 and a trip to Brussels to see their films screened at a special ceremony in the European Parliament on 5 October.
