If you’re a young climate defender between 18 and 30 years old in 2025, actively involved in a grassroots collective, social movement, or organization, this is your call to rise. Whether you’re rallying against oil giants, pushing back on extractive industries, organizing for worker rights in the energy sector, or dreaming of a world where clean power is a public right—not a privilege—this space is for you. Special consideration will be given to changemakers from Latin America, the Caribbean, the Pacific, and historically marginalized communities, particularly Indigenous and racialized youth. You’ll need to tell us about your work and the group you’re connected with—this isn’t just about you, but the wider movement you’re a part of.

This fellowship is a powerful journey designed to unite and fuel bold young leaders in the climate justice space. Over twelve months, selected fellows will tap into a deep well of mentorship, skill-building sessions, and intimate strategy circles where ideas and alliances can grow strong. Every resource—from training guides to campaign tools—will be shared in both English and Spanish, ensuring nothing gets lost in translation. You’ll also receive monthly support to keep your fire burning without burning out.

As we move toward COP 31, the fellowship becomes more than just a program—it transforms into a movement within the movement. It’s a heartbeat, a safe ground, a launchpad for collective visioning and cross-border collaboration. Here, you’re not just another activist. You’re part of a trusted circle, building power shoulder-to-shoulder with youth from across the globe.

Together, we’re shaping a future rooted in justice, care, and bold transformation. We’re not only fighting for the planet—we’re creating new systems, lifting each other up, and building the stamina to keep going. If you’re ready to be part of a vibrant network that centers well-being, fights with love, and builds with purpose, then step into the Squad. This is where change accelerates.
