The themes are based on the EU Green Deal main policy areas and translated into actionable and accessible themes for young EU citizens. Each journey will end with a visit to an EU-funded regional project, enabling the influencers and their followers to see, explore and reflect together on what it means to have a sustainable lifestyle, what is happening in their region with EU support and what actions can still be taken on an individual level and a collective level.

The Green Trip, run under the creative concept “Ding-Dong! Ready for the Green Challenge?” #DingDongEU is a campaign initiated by the European Commission’s Regional and Urban Policy Directorate-General (DG REGIO). The campaign promotes sustainable projects and lifestyles towards young Europeans. The journeys of the influencers take place between October-November 2020 and the campaign will run until May 2021.
