CYPRUS – Evgenia

Evgenia is a proactive board member of the non-governmental organisation Cyprus Youth DiplomaCY.

She co-founded the Local Conference of Youth (LCOY) in Cyprus, a youth-led climate initiative endorsed by the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change. She is a dedicated pupil advocate specialising in international law and human rights, with experience at the European Parliament and the European Court of Human Rights.
Throughout her journey, Evgenia has received noteworthy recognition: she was made Associate Fellow of the Royal Commonwealth Society and nominated for Young European of the Year in 2022. She is an active member of the together.eu network, promoting initiatives such as #ThisTimeIamVoting.

In 2020, she co-founded GD4C, a green initiative in Cyprus focused on the European Green Deal. Evgenia serves as a UN Youth Champion for Environment and Peace, advocating environmental peacebuilding and climate action, with engagements at major events such as COP26 and the UN General Assembly.

Back in Cyprus, she established the LCOY, and as a member of Cyprus Youth DiplomaCY she empowers young Cypriots, especially women, to pursue careers in diplomacy and international affairs. She values the support and guidance she receives from the European Parliament, particularly the Office in Cyprus, for carrying out her projects.

Evgenia’s dedication goes hand in hand with the together.eu network’s commitment to prioritising well-being in the European Union.
