About UNFCCC CAPACITY Fellowship Programme 2023

The CAPACITY (Capacity Award Programme to Advance Capabilities and Institutional Training in one Year) Programme targets young and mid-career professionals who are already in government service and who are nationals of and working in a small island developing State (SIDS) or a least developed country (LDC).

Program Details 

With financial support from the Government of Italy, the programme offers fellowships at the UN Climate Change secretariat for a period of one year (renewable to two years) with a view to building local capacity for addressing climate change in SIDS and LDCs by:

  • Supporting innovative analytical work on climate change in the context of sustainable development;
  • Helping to create a network of experts that can produce creative and innovative solutions to climate change and its effects;
  • Building the leadership potential of young and promising professionals.

Benefit

Academically outstanding young graduates from developing countries who are in the early stages of their careers are encouraged to apply. Priority will be given to women, amongst whom those from Least Developed Countries will be given the highest priority.
