A request for proposals for youth-led climate mobility solutions or initiatives from Africa is now being released by the ACMI Youth Forum and the Global Centre for Climate Mobility (GCCM) Solutions Lab. Selected projects will get financing of up to $5,000 each. This new funding structure for youth-led climate mobility solutions/projects has been developed by youth for youth with financial backing from the Robert Bosch Stiftung. We support using young people’s ability to produce new solutions that support climate resilience and enable people to successfully adjust to the climate catastrophe. We also support removing barriers that African youth face in accessing climate finance.
