Climate Champions Youth Fellowship 2023

[OFFICIO e Ambiente - Inovar]

"The Climate Champions Team is now looking for its third cohort of ambitious and stubbornly optimistic Youth Fellows. The programme creates a pathway for young professionals to work within the team supporting the UN Climate Change High-Level Champions for COP27 and COP28 [...] to drive real world momentum into the UN Climate Change negotiations.

If you’re an early career professional, 30 or under (in 2023), with a record of engagement or expertise in one or two of the sectors hosting the fellowship or a history of climate/sustainability advocacy and familiarity with multi-stakeholder organising, we highly encourage you to apply.

Eligibility criteria:

1) 30 or under 30 years of age in 2023;

2) Minimum five years of full-time work or volunteering experience, either in one of the fellowship sectors, climate leadership or organising;

3) Ability to commit minimum 16 hours a week to the fellowship;

4) Strong communication skills;

5) Self-motivated and willingness to be flexible (you will be working with teams across different time zones);

6) Adequate network relevant to sector-specific or climate related work;

7) Proficiency in the English language;

8) Your own laptop and reliable internet connectivity;

9) A commitment to the values of the Climate Champions Team to raise non-State actor commitments to the global goals of the Paris Agreement.

The fellowship will include modules on personal leadership development, mentoring, engagement with stakeholders, systems mapping and horizon planning, mobilisation and outreach in broader networks including working closely with local, regional and global youth organisations to ensure knowledge sharing and solutions exchange. There will also be an opportunity for the fellows to work together as a collective to explore projects and outreach. 

The fellowship will run for seven months from June to December 2023.

This is a paid fellowship programme.

The deadline for submitting complete applications is 9pm GMT on Monday 17 April."
