The CIF Youth Fellowship is a distinctive professional capacity-building initiative that aims to give the upcoming generation of young leaders in global climate action practical experience. It will be carried out in collaboration with six Multilateral Development Banks (MDBs) partners, including the World Bank, the African Development Bank, the Asian Development Bank, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, the InterAmerican Development Bank, and the International Finance Corporation. It is based on CIF-financed projects. It gives Fellows the chance to collaborate on programs in fields like gender and social inclusion, clean energy, adaptation and climate resilience, nature-based solutions, and energy access.
