Fourth EAS Youth Forum
The EAS Youth Forum 2015 gathered young leaders in the East Asian Seas (EAS) region to enhance their potentials as future champions and advocates of our oceans and coasts. Since 2006, the EAS Youth Forum has convened more than 200 young innovators in the region highlighting the youth's crucial role in the sustainable development of the seas of East Asia.
Here are four reasons this was an exciting and dynamic event:
LEARN
Interaction with environmental experts, scientists and policymakers on the pressing issues and much needed solutions for the sustainable management of our oceans and coasts. Sharing experiences with fellow young leaders in the region on environmental actions being undertaken.
INFLUENCE

NETWORK
Build friendships with fellow young leaders in the region and associate with known experts, scientists and policymakers in environmental conservation and management.
