UN SDSN Youth Investment Readiness Programme for Young Social Entrepreneurs

UN SDSN Youth Investment Readiness Programme for Young Social Entrepreneurs

SDSN Youth is a program of the UN Sustainable Development Solutions Network – an initiative launched by UN Secretary General, Ban Ki-moon, in 2012 to mobilize global expertise around the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

Young people are extremely skilled and aware of the challenges of sustainable development – but still face many challenges of their own, in promoting their solutions: from lack of funding access, to mentoring and networks, to a shared narrative or SDG alignment.

The Youth Solutions Program helps accelerate the growth of youth solutions through a digital ecosystem of experts and resources, to refine their pitches, secure funding, connect with experts and mentors, and find new partnerships to grow their SDG solutions.

Applicant should be 18-35 years;

Venture is registered in the country of operation;

Represent early-stage for-profit SDG focused start-ups.

Successful participants stand a chance to be selected for the 2023 Youth Solutions Pitch Competition.
