Call for Applications: Funded and Self Funded Spots to attend the 2025 Climate and SDGs Conference in Copenhagen, Denmark

Overview

UN DESA is offering one funded spot for youth from the Global South and at least one self funded spot for youth from all regions to participate at the upcoming 6th Global Conference on Strengthening Synergies between the Paris Agreement and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. The conference will take place at the UN City in Copenhagen, Denmark, on May 27-28!

2025 UN Climate and SDGs Conference

The Sixth Global Conference on Strengthening Synergies between the Paris Agreement and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development is a key platform to accelerate integrated climate and sustainable development action. Co-convened by the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UN DESA) and the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) Secretariat, and hosted by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Denmark, the conference will bring together policymakers, experts, and stakeholders to drive transformative solutions for a more sustainable future.

The world is facing interconnected crises—climate change, inequality, biodiversity loss, and financial instability—that demand bold, coordinated action. Over 80% of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are directly linked to climate action, yet fragmented approaches often limit progress. This conference aims to break silos and unlock synergies that maximize impact, optimize resources, and ensure no one is left behind.

Participation

MGCY is able to nominate at least one self-funded young person and a maximum of one funded young person from the Global South to attend the Conference in Copenhagen, Denmark through support from the UN DESA. 

Please apply for either, funded and self funded Spots to attend the 2025 Climate and SDGs Conference nomination!

When you apply, please make sure to submit a bio that is detailed and connected with the theme of the conference. This is extremely important as many a time MGCY have to send the bio to the UN or organizers and they can reject the nomination if the bio is not significantly connected to the theme of the event.

Selection process:

The selection process will be a joint effort between MGCY CT and YOUNGO (Climate Change Constituency), whose members will compose the selection committee.
