YouthADAPT Solutions Challenge Impact Report 2023
The African Youth Adaptation Solutions Challenge (YouthADAPT) is an annual awards programme that supports young entrepreneurs in Africa to scale up climate adaptation solutions by providing funding, skills development, and mentorship. Winners receive grant funding of up to $100,000 and enter a 12-month accelerator programme where they receive tailor-made mentorship.
YouthADAPT is run by the Global Center on Adaptation (GCA) and its partners, the African Development Bank and Climate Investment Funds.
The GCA contracted Human Element Communications to write and edit the YouthADAPT impact report for 2023, which launched at COP28 in Dubai.
