Deadline: 16th June,2024
Are you a young African interested in nurturing positive change in Africa’s communities, landscapes and seascapes?
Then look no further!
Apply now for a spot at the 2024 Landscape Leadership Camp, and embark on a transformative journey towards landscape leadership together with other young visionaries from all across the continent. Co-designed by the Global Landscapes Forum and the Youth in Landscapes Initiative (YIL) the camp will take place in Nairobi, Kenya, ahead of the GLF Africa 2024 Hybrid Conference.
This immersive experience will bring together like-minded students, young professionals, experts and community-minded individuals from across Africa, creating a vibrant, cross-cultural community dedicated to driving impactful and transformative change.
Benefit
We will have a limited number of full and partial travel scholarships available to cover some participants’ travel, accommodation and associated attendance costs to and from Nairobi. We will award scholarships based on need and merit considering the application of each person. The remaining selected participants are expected to raise their own funds to attend, though our team will be available to assist with fundraising wherever possible.
Eligibility
Young people are already championing landscape action and community-based solutions all across Africa. They have immense potential to forge a new development model and realize sovereign visions for the continent.
If you are:
- Between the ages of 18 and 35;
- A citizen of an African country;
- And passionate about thriving communities and landscapes
Then the 2024 Landscape Leadership Camp is for you!
We would like to especially encourage women, Indigenous and rural youth, and other individuals from underrepresented groups across Africa to apply.
Application Process
The application will take about five to ten minutes to complete.
You will need to submit a one-minute video answering the question: How can we achieve climate justice for Africa’s communities, landscapes and seascapes?
Please note that all applicants will receive an automatic application confirmation email, but only shortlisted candidates will be contacted beyond that.
