Fully Funded UN-OHRLLS Call for Young Storytellers From Landlocked Developing Countries

Fully Funded UN-OHRLLS Call for Young Storytellers From Landlocked Developing Countries

Are you a young person from a landlocked developing country (LLDC)? – UN-OHRLLS are looking for passionate and creative storytellers from LLDCs to become Land-linked fellows. You can express your interest by submitting any type of digital content (a photo, video etc) showcasing the compelling stories and unique experiences of young people in these nations.

A selected number of fellows will be fully funded to participate in the 3rd United Nations Conference on the Landlocked Developing Countries to be held in Kigali from 18-22 June 2024.

As the world keeps changing, we cannot risk leaving young people behind. They are the engines of change. But emergencies like climate change, poverty and inequality are stopping too many from achieving their full potential. Young people in landlocked countries need more jobs, access to technology and a healthier environment.

LLDC3 in Kigali will be where world leaders will come together to shape a new action plan to achieve a better, more sustainable future for all. No one is excluded. This decision will have an impact on the lives of millions of young people, and it is your right to have a say and forge it!

This is YOUR chance to be a changemaker, but we need to hear from YOU!

How does living in a landlocked developing country affect you? How do you feel about your prospects for work and for life? What must happen to make things better? Who inspires you to make positive change?
