###  Young Voices, Shared Futures: The Aix-Marseille Polycrisis Declaration

How can Africa and Europe empower young people to navigate a world shaped by conflict, migration, climate change, and other interconnected crises?

Fresh from the PolyCIVIS Network's June 2026 Final Conference, the **Aix-Marseille Polycrisis Declaration** brings together **10 recommendations** of African and European academics, stakeholders, and youth-focused experts. The Declaration recognizes young people not only as those affected by the polycrisis but also as key actors in peacebuilding, climate action, innovation, and social change.

By promoting meaningful youth participation, inclusive governance, and support for youth-led initiatives, the Declaration presents a shared vision for building more resilient and sustainable societies across Africa and Europe.

Read the Declaration and discover how youth agency can help shape responses to today's most pressing global challenges.

###  PolyCIVIS Final Conference: Reflecting on three years of Euro-African collaboration

 ![](https://civis.eu/storage/files/poster-polycivis-final-conference-1-800x800.png?token=96c89ed8d95ff92b4e86de1c97cefbf0)

The PolyCIVIS Final Conference will take place from **2 to 5 June 2026** at **the Maison Méditerranéenne des Sciences Humaines et Sociales in Aix-en-Provence,** bringing together researchers, experts, academics, and students from Africa and Europe for four days of dialogue, collaboration, and collective reflection on the challenges of the polycrisis and the pathways toward resilience and cooperation.

As the concluding gathering of the PolyCIVIS project after three years of collaboration, the conference will highlight the network’s major achievements in research, policy, teaching, and communication, while opening discussions on future cooperation and resilience-building across Euro-African contexts. The programme includes scientific sessions, policy discussions, pedagogical exchanges, cultural activities, and working meetings dedicated to addressing the complexity of today’s interconnected global challenges.

Participants will also have the opportunity to explore the project’s key outcomes, including the edited volume *Facing the Polycrisis Together: Context and African-European Perspectives*, and to engage in collective reflections on sustainability, youth resilience, governance, climate change, migration, and peacebuilding.

###  From Polycrisis to Policy Action: Four New PolyCIVIS Policy Briefs

The Polycrisis &amp; Policy WP has released five new policy briefs addressing some of today’s most pressing and interconnected global challenges. From climate change and geopolitical instability to rising debt and the water–energy–food nexus, these briefs provide evidence-based insights and practical policy recommendations. They highlight the importance of stronger cooperation between Europe and Africa, exploring topics such as ocean governance, water management, economic vulnerability, and resilience to climate shocks.

###  PolyCIVIS Teaching Working Meeting

#### **How can we create innovative teaching programs to tackle the polycrisis?**

On Wednesday, 25 September, from 11:00 to 13:00 CEST, academics from the PolyCIVIS network came together to explore this critical question in an internal hybrid working session led by the teaching work package (WP4), co-led by Makerere University (MAK), Kampala, Uganda, and Paris Lodron University Salzburg (PLUS), Austria.

With contributions from the research and policy work packages (WP2 and WP3), this session focused on leveraging existing courses and lessons from previous Blended Intensive Programs (BIPs) to develop a comprehensive interdisciplinary curriculum on polycrisis. The discussion also covered strategies for engaging students and forging external partnerships to enhance the quality of joint programs. Students from member universities also participated in the session, offering feedback and sharing ideas for future courses, exchanges and meetings.
