BIG STUDENT SUMMIT IN COPENHAGEN

ABOUT
On 10th-12th of March 2009, Energy Crossroads Denmark will host the first of a series of regional events that will run on all continents throughout the entire 2009. Through these events we aim to unite the young generations of the world in a common effort to create a blueprint holding the opportunities to solve the global energy challenges. We call this “Our Opportunity”, and it all begins in Copenhagen, where Energy Crossroads Denmark will gather the European coalition of students in an interactive summit where workshop activities will propel the process of generating the European chapter of the blueprint; finding opportunities in solving the energy challenges of Europe. With this blueprint we want to send a clear message, that we prioritize the climate and energy challenges and are ready to take urgent action – and that we want the current world leaders to do the same.
AIM OF THE SUMMIT
The aim of the summit is to show the students of Europe that it is vital that we reach a clean yet prosperous and secure energy future - and most importantly how this is possible. After spending 3 days in Copenhagen, the students will understand challenges, think solutions and be empowered and inspired to act.
Our program features an unique game-play framework, where the participants will meet each other and discuss the challenges and solutions to the energy challenges. We will make sure to spark interesting debate by making each participant represent a different stakeholder - each with his or her own interest to safeguard.
The aim of the game is to find synergies and rethink the way that these stake-holders (that be firms, sectors and countries) currently work together, so that we may truly push on a united effort in reaching a clean, prosperous and secure future.
