A global education activity initiated by a group of GLEN alumni.
Sailing for Sustainability is a European-wide global education activity on sustainability. In summer 2012 we are going to catch up on Rio+20 (United Nation Conference on sustainable development) and organise a four weeks sailing expedition across the Baltic Sea.
On the ship, 4 sessions of one-week seminars – focusing on sustainability topics – will be held. We have organised events on the ship (taking 30 people per week on board), as well as organised different global education events in harbours on the route.

The basic conditions for participants are: aged 18-30, living in Romania, Czech Republic, Slovenia, Estonia, Latvia, Poland, France or Germany, however some exceptions might be made.
