This article presents the initial findings from the “Fridays for Future (FFF) and the question of good life” study. It addressed the research question “How do FFF activists see themselves and the world” by conducting biographical guided interviews with young activists. Subjects included their motivation to be part of the movement, what they are personally doing to combat climate change, and how they obtain information. This article examines these questions and reflects on the opportunities and challenges for VET.
