SustainUS's Agents of Change program brings delegations of U.S.-based youth to conferences and summits related to international policy, primarily at the United Nations. Our delegates work with government delegates, fellow civil society members, and other youth to promote youth-friendly and future-focused policies related to sustainable development. This May, SustainUS will be sending approximately 21 young people from across the United States to the 18th Session of the Commission on Sustainable Development (CSD),  May 3-14, 2010 at the UN headquarters in New York City. This CSD Review Session will focus on the following thematic issues: Transport, Chemicals, Waste Management (Hazardous & Solid Waste), Mining, and the 10 Year Framework of Programmes on Sustainable Consumption & Production Patterns . Delegates will provide on-the-ground reports to the Agents of Change Blog at www.sustainus.org/blog and on twitter @SustainUSAgents. Meet the delegates by clicking 'Read More' at the end of this post.

Define Our Decade


SustainUS is working to Define Our Decade with the Energy Action Coalition's Our Decade campaign. 

From now until March 28th 2010, young people across the United States are voting to determine what they want their next 10 years to look like and sharing their visions for the next decade.

Take a moment to join the conversation and help spread the word.
