Call for Applications: SDGs Campus Ambassador Programme Cohort 4

The SDGs Campus Ambassador Programme is a transformative 10-week leadership programme, designed to ignite the potential of tertiary institution students as torchbearers of sustainable development. It serves as a crucible where young minds are forged into global leaders and catalysts for meaningful change, guided by the vision of a more equitable and sustainable future.
Students, often referred to as the architects of tomorrow, are positioned at the heart of this initiative. Recognizing their pivotal role as the bedrock of societal progress, the programme equips them with the tools, insights, and determination to carve pathways toward achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
