Global Youth Climate Action Fund (GYCAF)
The Global Youth Climate Action Fund (GYCAF) is the first of its kind climate fund dedicated to financing youth-led climate action around the world. The idea for the fund was birthed at COP25 and developed over a three months consultation period that involved virtual dialogues with finance experts to help curate a vehicle that supports and champions youth-led climate action. This initiative is hosted by BLI Global. The GYCAF defines youth-led climate action as any initiative, activity, project, or program that is being coordinated or led by a young individual, a youth organization, community-based organization, or business venture that is geared towards climate adaptation, mitigation as a primary focus of the organization or entity (where the purpose of founding this organization was to solemnly combat climate change) or as a secondary focus (where the purpose of founding this organization was to commit to reducing their carbon footprint). Successful applicants will be awarded grants between USD 500 - USD 1,000, depending on the grantee application.
