Max Thabiso Edkins Climate Ambassador Program (MTECAP)
The MTECAP is a six-month online program that encourages young people to become leaders in the fight against climate change by giving participants the chance to connect with one another, learn from World Bank experts and GYCN and C4C knowledge partners, and take significant climate action both locally and globally. The program provides the young ambassadors with in-depth knowledge and understanding of climate change and the related challenges examined in the World Bank Group Climate Change Action Plan as well as guidance on how to creatively communicate their newfound knowledge for maximum impact. It consists of a mix of technical and hands-on sessions.Each member is required to have attended a predetermined number of learning sessions and taken three specific climate actions in their community by the program’s conclusion. All those who meet these criteria will graduate and receive a certificate of completion.
