Belizean Youth Invited to Apply for Italian Conference on Climate

If you are a young Belizean passionate about climate change, the Italian Embassy in Mexico City is looking for delegates to send to a youth climate summit in Milan this September.  Successful applicants will join four hundred of their peers aged fifteen to twenty-nine from United Nations member countries. You must be able to demonstrate activism in programs or initiatives centered on climate change or sustainable development and respond to a questionnaire. The selection committee includes the Office of the Envoy of the UN-Secretary General on Youth, the Children and Youth Constituency of the United Nations Framework on Climate Change and the Italian Ministry of the Environment.  All expenses to Italy will be covered for the chosen delegates. If you are interested, you must hurry, however, because applications close on February 28.
