Application is now for United Nations SDSN Youth Local Pathways Fellowship 2020. The UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network – Youth Initiative (SDSN Youth) announced the launch of the call for applications for the 2020 cohort of its Local Pathways Fellowship program. The Fellowship is one of the world’s leading training and research programs on SDG11 for young urban leaders.

The Local Pathways Fellowship is an initiative of SDSN Youth, the global youth initiative of the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN). SDSN Youth’s mission is to empower young people globally to create sustainable solutions. Through the Local Pathways Fellowships, SDSN Youth aims to amplify the tremendous energy of youths in materializing the SDGs.

The 2020 cohort of the Local Pathways Fellowship will bring together a network of 100 young thought leaders. Especially, from urban planners, sustainability advocates, researchers and innovators from 100 different cities across the world to advance local dialogue, collaboration and problem-solving around the Sustainable Development Goals and to make cities and urban settlements “smart, fair and sustainable”. This year, Fellowship has redesigned its curriculum to help fellows develop skills that will be in high demand in 2020.

Youth Local Pathways Fellowship Details

The Local Pathways Fellowship seeks to provide young leaders with a platform, a guiding framework for action, and connect them with leading development experts and practitioners:

The fellows will take on a 10-month journey throughout which they will explore pathways for “localizing” the global goals. Also, they will exchange knowledge and ideas and work to engage local stakeholders in a dialogue around pathways.
