Deadline: 31-Oct-22
If you are a Young Climate Designer, Thinker, Maker, Coder, or Leader, helping to mitigate or combat climate change in your community, apply to the Young Climate Prize.
The prize has been designed to invest in the generation born into the climate crisis, and provide visibility, support and mentorship for 25 of the world’s most talented and passionate climate designers under the age of 25.
They are looking for young people who are working on their own self-started projects that address, draw attention to or mitigate climate change in their community. The chosen applicants will join a bespoke academy and each be mentored by one of their extraordinary Design Champions – the world’s leading climate-change-focused designers, museum directors, curators, writers and business leaders.
The inaugural cohort of 25 winners into the World Around Young Climate Prize will be selected by their jury and announced in December 2022.
The World Around’s annual summit will take place at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum on Earth Day 2023. A select group of the finalists will join us in New York to present their work.

Anyone aged 13-25 can submit their work. They encourage young people from anywhere in the world to share their projects. If English is not your first language you will be able to indicate this during the application process.
