YOUNGO Global South Scholarships (GSS 2017) to attend COP 23 & COY 13 in Bonn, Germany (Fully Funded)

The selected youths will have all their costs covered – including costs for all international and domestic flight tickets, costs of accommodation for about 19 days (from November 1st to November 18th, the duration including both COY13 and COP23), visa application fee, cost for travel insurance, food, local transport and additional expenses during the stay in Bonn.

Participate in a comprehensive capacity-building programme:

The GSS 2017 will also provide a robust capacity building program in order to ensure the selected youth’s meaningful participation at COP23. This programme will consist of different online training sessions (starting sometime from September 2017), webinars, on-ground preparation and mentorship from experienced trainers. This capacity-building programme will be designed to train you about UNFCCC processes and negotiations and also to support your plans and activities during COP23 to ensure that you not only know what exactly is going on in the negotiations, but also can get involved effectively!

Share your experiences and raise your voice at international level:

As a young person who cares about climate change, you may have gathered experiences worth sharing; participation in the UNFCCC process allows you to raise your concerns on the climate crisis, including both the current impacts of climate change affecting front-line communities and the expected impacts it will have on young and future generations.
