For the second round of The Young Climate Prize mentorship programme and award, applications are now being accepted.

The World Around, a nonprofit organisation based in New York, created the prize to encourage the generation of activists and designers who were born into the climate catastrophe and are in a unique position to confront it.

The award links up-and-coming change-makers with mentors in the global design community who can help them spread their message faster and connect them to a wider network of like-minded individuals.

Three winners will be flown to New York City to present their work and ideas at The World Around's famous Annual Summit in 2025, and 25 finalists will get life-changing mentorships.
