The Europe Regional Meeting 2023 was hosted by RCE Basque Country - Navarre and RCE Fryslân, held virtually from 12-14 September, 2023, under the theme 'Transformative Education for Sustainable Regions'.

The meeting built on the experience of RCE Fryslân following the successful hosting of the Europe Regional Meetings 2022 (Part I and Part II), and utilised the fresh energy provided by the newly acknowledged RCE Basque Country - Navarre.

Several organisations and institutions engaged in RCE Basque Country – Navarre are currently leading the adoption of the Basque Strategy for Education for Social Transformation which aims to promote: (i) a critical citizenship that is aware of injustice and inequality on the planet; and (ii) equitable and solidarity-based practices that generate practices leading to individual and collective change.

In addition to following-up on actions agreed during the European RCE Meeting 2022, this meeting sought inspiration from different angles of the European ESD community, and in particular, heard from voices of the RCE youth networks.

A recap of the meeting is available here.

The Global RCE Service Centre would like to thank the teams at RCE Fryslân and RCE Basque Country - Navarre for their wonderful contributions and efforts organising a successful Europe Regional Meeting 2023, and to all participants for their active participation and contributions.
