GTF Youth Forum – Empowering Global Changemakers

On 3–5 June 2026, Sofia will host the inaugural GTF Youth Forum — a dynamic three-day platform created by the Green Transition Forum specifically for the next generation of leaders, entrepreneurs, and activists. Bringing together over 200 young people between the ages of 16 and 30 from across different countries, sectors, and backgrounds, the forum provides a space to learn, connect, and take action.

The Green Transition Forum believes that young people are the future which is why the forum is built entirely around the topics that matter most to the younger generation: leadership and social change, financial independence, climate action, digital skills, entrepreneurship, and mental health. Every session is designed as a practical tool so that every participant leaves with new knowledge, concrete skills, and a network of like-minded peers.

In a world where artificial intelligence is reshaping the job market, disinformation threatens democracy, and the climate crisis demands urgent solutions, the GTF Youth Forum places young people at the heart of the conversation. The goal is clear: to empower them with the knowledge, confidence, and tools needed to meet the challenges of the near future, and to turn those challenges into opportunities.
