Access to financing is even h arder from established entities that require documentation youth organizations starting out may not have. That is why we are working to reimagine and define global climate finance in the inter-generational context. The Global Youth Climate Action Fund seeks to streamline access to finance for youth. Youth We believe that young people are the drivers to sustainable development and green economies. Most of the population in developing countries are young people therefore they have a larger stake in climate change. Climate Change will affect the lives of young people in this and the next decade. Which is why we are committing resources to enable young people bring their actions to life. Climate Action For the world to move towards reduced emissions, we need the contribution of everyone from every sector, playing their part. Young people play a pivotal role championing climate action. From advocating for policies internationally to creating opportunities at the grassroots level. Supporting initiatives and ventures that create climate opportunities is key towards lowering emissions. What Is Youth-Led Climate Action? Youth-led climate action is any initiative, activity, project, or program that is being coordinated or led by a young individual, a youth organization, community-based organization, or business venture that is geared towards climate adaptation, mitigation as a primary focus of the organization or entity (where the purpose of founding this organization was to solemnly combat climate change) or as a secondary focus (where the purpose of founding this organization was to commit to reducing their carbon footprint). We are committed to support Youth-led Climate Action Micro-Grants Capacity Building Finance Literacy The GYCAF Application Process We offer a wide range of climate financing solutions for young people to enable them to take effective action on climate change.
