VOLUNTEER

If you're over 25 and want to make a difference in the climate space, we invite you to volunteer your time and expertise with the Young Climate Prize.

Each cycle, The World Around brings together a global community of supporters who play a vital role in championing our finalists. Volunteers contribute in many ways: offering guidance and mentorship, sharing knowledge and networks, supporting program delivery, and helping young innovators strengthen and scale their work.

Whether you can commit to ongoing mentorship or contribute in other meaningful ways, your involvement directly shapes the experience and impact of the program.

We're currently building our volunteer network for Cycle 03, beginning September 2026. If you're interested in getting involved, please register below.
