UNFPA Climate HackLab

Young people as game changers for a sustainable, green future

As incidents of climate related hazards are on the rise, UNFPA acknowledges that the impact of climate change will also undermine its mission to end preventable maternal death, end unmet need for family planning, and end gender-based violence and harmful practices by 2030.

The UNFPA East and Southern Africa Regional Office, under the auspices of the Safeguard Young People Programme, has  therefore initiated an exciting innovation project that aims to solicit smart innovations and ideas that will contribute towards building community resilience. Young people across East and Southern Africa are therefore encouraged to grab this opportunity and make a life-changing impact.

Two young innovators will each receive USD 10,000 in seed capital and for business incubation.
