OneUpAction 2023 Youth Solutionists in Government Program for International Students
Published: 24 May 2023
The Youth Solutionists in Government Fellowship (YSGF) is a 4-month virtual program based in the United States for individuals between the ages of 15 and 25, with the goal of bridging the gap between youth and climate policymaking spaces. Oftentimes, climate decision spaces do not include the visions and ideas of youth. Our goal is to transform that by ensuring that youth are empowered to participate in environmental governance on a local, state, and/or federal level. We provide capacity-building sessions to educate fellows on how to engage the government through our unique 3-step framework.
