New York, UNICEF has opened applications for its Leading Minds Fellowship on Climate, seeking young individuals between the ages of 15 and 25 who are actively engaged in climate action within their communities. The program is dedicated to empowering young leaders to influence UNICEF’s climate-related endeavors.

According to Pak NGOs, the fellowship is a six-month, part-time, paid program that offers young climate leaders the opportunity to play a critical role at the Leading Minds Conference 2024, which focuses on climate breakthroughs. UNICEF emphasizes the importance of youth leadership in driving climate action and aims to provide a platform where young leaders can contribute to shaping the future of the organization’s climate work and child rights advocacy.

Applicants are expected to be more than participants; they are considered potential architects of the future, who are eager to turn insights into action and ideas into substantial change. The fellowship is looking for candidates with a track record of leading local projects, contributing to global initiatives, or launching startups. Skills in facilitation, writing, and analysis are beneficial, but the key is the ability to engage with youth networks and contribute creatively to research and advocacy.

UNICEF encourages young people who are ready to influence, innovate, and inspire to apply for the Leading Minds Fellowship 2024 and join in shaping a sustainable future for children worldwide.
