The Global Call for Climate Action is looking for young, innovative
journalists, bloggers, writers, activists and creatives to become Adopt a
Negotiator Fellows for 2014.
These Fellows will combine their passion and skills with an amazing
opportunity to help shape their government’s role in solving climate change.
They’ll join a team of passionate, dedicated and talented activists from
around the world; participating in moments that will shape if and how the
governments respond adequately to the climate challenge. Their efforts will
build on a proud legacy of past ‘Negotiator Trackers,’ who have helped shape
the UN climate negotiations ever since 2009.
If you think you can help shape the direction of this year’s climate
change negotiations by creating change in your own country, then this is an
opportunity not to be missed.
This year, we will be offering all short-listed candidates the chance to
prove their skills in the lead up to the conference through training
opportunities with some of the world’s best climate change communicators and
activists, and a support network to help get your voice where it counts.
You’ll also have the opportunity to join a team of passionate, dedicated
and talented activists from around the world, working together to actively
transform the way climate change is communicated in their home countries. This
team will work together in the lead up to this year’s UNFCCC Conference of
Parties in Lima, Peru.
If selected,
you may also have the opportunity to travel to Lima in December this year as a
Fully Funded member of the Adopt a Negotiator’s – Negotiator Tracker – team.
