    Description

    The Youth Climate Council Global Alliance is a network of Youth Climate Councils (YCCs) connected across Africa, Latin America, and Europe, designed and structured to enable and strengthen youth participation in climate governance processes across international, national and local levels.

    You can check our 2025 impact report here.

    As we’re working to expand our impact in Latin America, the purpose of this call is:

    1. To engage young, passionate individuals to be part of the YCC Brazil team advocating for youth inclusion in climate change policymaking, planning and attending events and activities, supporting coordination and communications within the network, and implementing projects (when applicable).
    2. To build a network of allied organizations interested in hosting the YCC in Brazil and/or collaborating with us in upcoming projects, both in the country and internationally.

    We invite potential partners, organizations and individual supporters in Brazil to express their interest in joining us by completing the following form.

    If you are applying as an organization, please complete sections 1, 3 and 4. If you are applying as an individual, please complete sections 1 and 2 only.

    If you have any questions, please contact Diego Toledo, our Regional Coordinator at latamcoordinator@youthclimatecouncil.com
