2017 Climate Tracker Fellowship (Fully-funded to COP23 in Germany)

Note: To successfully apply for this scholarship, ensure you read all instructions on this page.

The Climate Tracker is launching its COP23 opportunity, and it is stacked with opportunities and prizes for Trackers from everywhere in the world!

If you want to be part of this incredible transition, it’s time to raise your voice, and join our opportunity for a FULLY FUNDED trip to COP23, in Germany in November.

We will have 3 publishing windows, during which you will have to write at least 1 article about a specific topic. You will have to write at least one article on each topic to be eligible for our prizes. That means at least 3 articles in total:

  • Topic 1 (1July – 31 July): The Clean Energy Revolution

During the first publishing window, we encourage you to: (1) describe the importance of, and the opportunities for, clean energy in your country or region; (2) explain how the fossil fuel industry is having negative impacts on climate change, endangering millions of people, and (3) call out for a higher ambition in executing the well-underway clean energy revolution.

  • Topic 2 (1Aug – 31 Aug): Supporting Climate Finance

To ensure the wellbeing of future societies and to achieve the climate goals that have been set, we have to invest in the future. It’s time to take up responsibility and make sure where our climate money is going.

  • Topic 3 (1 Sep – 30 Sept): Climate and health

Climate change is impacting each and every one of us on a very personal level that many of us don’t even realize, namely our health. With climate action, we have the chance to save millions of lives.

To get started on the first topic, and get some inspiration on how and what to write, we will be sending you a toolkit as soon as you sign up to the competition.

By writing on these topics, you’re eligible to win a spot on our team at COP23 in Bonn.
