Deadline: September 1, 2024
The Global Centre for Climate Mobility (GCCM) Youth Forums, under the Africa Climate Mobility Initiative, the Rising Nations Initiative, and the Greater Caribbean Climate Mobility Initiative, are now opening a call for applications to the CMP Youth Programme to participate in COP29 as a CMP Youth Delegate.
The CMP Youth Programme will bring together a group of young people to advance climate action focusing on the most climate-vulnerable regions in the world.

Up to 30 delegates will be selected through this application process for the CMP Youth Programme. The CMP Youth Programme will ensure gender equality in its composition of delegates as well as the inclusion of a wide array of experiences with climate impacts and mobility, especially from the most climate-vulnerable communities.
