Beginning of July, the AEF fellows gathered to launch their very first campaign. The focus was to be set on sustainable development and awareness, birthing our campaign hashtag #greenaef.
In less than a week, we have managed to reach a total of 16.000 people all over the world. Bringing new light and awareness of the sustainability topic.
We would like to thank out community on Twitter and Instagram for their active engagement.
