Work Experience

The Climate & Youth Action program is at the heart of ClimArt Africa’s mission to inspire, equip, and connect young people leading the continent’s transition toward a sustainable future. We believe that Africa’s youth hold the key to bold, transformative climate action — and our program provides the platform, tools, and networks they need to make a lasting impact.

Program Goal

To empower the next generation of African climate leaders to engage in climate advocacy, policy influence, innovation, and movement building — driving Africa’s contribution to global sustainability and resilience.

Our Approach

Through our Climate Leadership Accelerator, policy engagement platforms, and innovation hubs, ClimArt Africa equips youth with skills, knowledge, resources, and mentorship to actively participate in national, regional, and global climate processes.
