UNFCCC Climate Champions Youth Fellowship 2024 for Young Professionals (Paid Fellowship)
The Climate Champions Team is now looking for its fourth 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 COP28 and COP29 – H.E Razan Al Mubarak and Ms. Nigar Arpadarai – to drive real world momentum into the UN Climate Change negotiations.
As part of the Youth Fellowship programme, you will help mobilise climate action amongst non-State actors to achieve the goals of the Paris Agreement, in close collaboration with the UNFCCC, the Marrakech Partnership and the COP Presidencies.
Fellows will join the Climate Champions Team for a seven month fellowship, focused on:
- The core Campaigns: Race To Zero and Race To Resilience
- Systems Transformation: critical sectoral work in Finance, tracking signals of change
- Stakeholder and Policy Engagement
- Strategic Communications
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.
Deadline: 10 April, 2024
