Apply for the International Centre for Climate Change and Development Youth Fellowship Programme 2025

Young people hold the future in their hands. Across the globe, they are championing climate issues on local, national, and international stages, addressing their concerns and proposing solutions to real-world climate challenges. As the largest demographic group with the greatest potential for change, young voices and actions are vital in the climate advocacy landscape.

Recognizing this, ICCCAD values youth contributions to climate action and sees the need for their engagement in reshaping climate goals. To support this, ICCCAD has established a one-year fellowship program that involves young people in climate change development, allowing them to address sector challenges and propose viable solutions. This program is designed to strengthen the resilience and adaptability of young people in local communities and elevate these issues to national and international platforms. It also empowers young men and women to step up, participate in knowledge sharing, and build awareness through impactful learning and capacity-building opportunities.
