About us
The Eco Agents is the children's own environmental organization, with members from every corner of Norway. We strive to raise children's voices in the national and global conversations on climate change, and create lasting commitments to the environmental cause.

Children are the future. The Eco Agents make sure the voices of children are heard today, while preparing them for environmental leadership tomorrow. We work to give children greater belief in themselves and their future, and to demonstrate that everyone can make a difference.
The Eco Agents want to nourish a long lasting and solution-oriented passion for the environmental cause, on the children's own terms. We emphasize optimism and a positive outlook in our activities. In our fight to live within the boundaries of our planet, the Eco Agents choose to face challenges with enthusiasm, creativity, and inclusive action.
Our fundamental goals
- That our members discover our wonderful nature and explore the connections between humans and nature.
- To help children believe in themselves, in the democratic process, and in the importance of taking action. Eco Agents have the right to speak up!
- To work for a safer society where humans know what nature can tolerate and act accordingly.
- To support our Eco Agents in the development of a life-long passion for the climate and environment.
Our organization
The Eco Agents, or "Miljøagentene", was founded in 2006, growing out of the popular children’s movement “Inky’s Environmental Detectives”. Today, we have local groups in all parts of Norway and approximately 10 000 registered members. All children in Norway can become eco agents, and we are a non-governmental organization with no affiliation to political parties. However, we get involved in political topics of our time, and do what we can to convince political parties to take better care of our planet.
The Eco Agents is a democratic organization where the members decide what issues we work with, and what activities we organize. This can include school campaigns, political campaigns, nature clean-up days, recycling drives and excursions. We also publish the Eco Agent's Report, our members magazine, five times a year.
The Children's Panel on Climate Change
Each year, the members of the Eco Agents elect a Children’s Panel on Climate Change. The panel represents the voices of Norwegian children in meetings with politicians and other decision makers, and brings their perspectives to both national and international arenas. Since its founding in 2015, the panel has gathered input from hundreds of thousands of Norwegian children and young people and presented their views to representatives of the Norwegian Parliament, government ministers and other policymakers.
The panel also participates in the UN Climate Change Conference (COP), where it brings the perspectives of Norwegian children to an international audience.
In November 2025, the panel attended COP30 in Brazil, where it presented the Eco Agents’ eleventh annual Children’s Climate and Environment Report, titled NOW!
Children's Climate and Environment Report
The Children's Climate and Environment Report is an annual report written by the Children’s Panel. It brings together children's perspectives on climate change and the environment, based on contributions collected from across Norway in the form of text and drawings. The report also draws on findings from a national survey on children's attitudes towards climate change and the environment.
The latest report, NOW!, includes input from more than 18,000 Norwegian children and young people collected over the past year. The report is presented by the children themselves to Norwegian politicians and international policymakers through their participation in the UN Climate Change Conference.
