Youth, Law, and the Green Transition: A Conversation with Theodora Koutentaki
Description
In this episode of YEPs on the Ground, we welcome Theodora Koutentaki, a Young Elected Politician from Greece and member of the EPP group at the European Committee of the Regions.
With a background in law and finance and a passion for sustainability, Theodora offers a unique perspective on how youth engagement, legal frameworks, and environmental activism can come together to drive Europe’s green transition. From her experience supporting Greece’s largest energy community to mobilizing young people around reforestation and coastal cleanups, she shares how environmental initiatives can also foster social inclusion and civic empowerment.
We explore the critical role of local and regional authorities in achieving the EU’s climate goals, and discuss how to create the right conditions for them to lead the charge, backed by youth energy, legal clarity, and financial innovation.
Tune in to hear how a new generation of leaders is redefining sustainability from the ground up.
