About the Africa Youth Climate Fund (AYCF)

Africa’s youthful population is one of the continent’s greatest assets in advancing a low-carbon, climate-resilient development pathway through initiatives that promote a just and inclusive green transition. Yet despite young people being at the forefront of climate action, innovation, advocacy, and community resilience-building, they continue to receive only a fraction of global climate finance. Less than 1% of international and local climate funding reaches youth-led organizations directly, limiting their ability to scale solutions, influence policy, and drive transformative climate action. At the same time, Africa faces disproportionate climate impacts despite contributing less than 4% of global greenhouse gas emissions, making investment in youth leadership and locally driven solutions more urgent than ever.

The Africa Youth Climate Fund (AYCF) is a flagship initiative of the Green Africa Youth Organization (GAYO), established to redistribute power, resources, and decision-making to Africa’s youth climate movements. AYCF exists to address the persistent inequities in climate finance by ensuring that young African climate leaders, innovators, movements, and organizations have direct access to the resources, partnerships, and opportunities needed to scale transformative climate solutions. Through a participatory youth-for-youth grant-making model, the Fund supports entrepreneurship and innovation, movement building, research, and climate justice advocacy across Africa. AYCF serves as both a financing mechanism and a continental platform for strengthening youth leadership in climate action, resilience, and sustainable development.

AYCF envisions an Africa where young people are not merely beneficiaries of climate interventions but are recognized as decision-makers, innovators, investors, and architects of the continent’s climate-resilient future. Through resource mobilization, fostering partnerships, nurturing innovation, and amplifying youth voices, AYCF is building a new paradigm of climate finance that is accessible, equitable, and responsive to the aspirations and realities of Africa’s young people.

Purpose of the Position

The Communications and Youth Engagement Officer will coordinate and support the implementation of AYCF’s communications, youth engagement, storytelling, digital visibility, and public engagement agenda. The role will help position AYCF as a leading youth-led climate finance mechanism in Africa by amplifying youth voices, documenting grantee stories, supporting strategic communications products, and strengthening engagement with young climate leaders, partners, donors, media, and wider public audiences.

The role is responsible for shaping AYCF’s institutional voice, strengthening its brand and visibility, and ensuring that the stories, innovations, and achievements of young climate leaders are effectively communicated to diverse audiences, including young people, donors, policymakers, partners, the media, and the broader public. Through compelling storytelling, strategic communications, and digital engagement, the Officer will amplify the impact of AYCF’s investments while contributing to broader conversations on climate justice, youth leadership, and locally led climate action.

Working closely with program teams, grantees, and partners, the  Communications and Youth Engagement Officer will cultivate meaningful engagement with young people across Africa by creating platforms for dialogue, learning, collaboration, and collective action. The role will champion youth participation beyond program implementation, ensuring that young people actively influence conversations on climate finance, policy, innovation, and sustainable development while strengthening AYCF’s youth-for-youth identity.

As AYCF grows its grantmaking portfolio, the Officer will work closely with the Programs and Community Support Manager to translate program evidence, grantee experiences, learning, and impact into compelling communications products. The role will support AYCF’s public credibility by ensuring that stories, campaigns, publications, digital content, and youth engagement activities are accurate, ethical, inclusive, and grounded in the realities of young climate leaders across Africa.

AYCF’s Strategic Communications and Youth Engagement Philosophy

At the Africa Youth Climate Fund (AYCF), communications is more than a tool for visibility; it is a strategic instrument for shifting power, amplifying youth leadership, strengthening accountability, and transforming how climate action and climate finance are understood and experienced across Africa. Narratives about climate action in Africa are too often shaped by external actors, portraying young people as beneficiaries rather than innovators, leaders, decision-makers, and architects of climate solutions.

AYCF is committed to changing this narrative by positioning young people at the center of climate storytelling, public discourse, and decision-making. The Fund believes that strategic communications and meaningful youth engagement are fundamental to advancing climate justice, strengthening locally led action, fostering accountability, and building a vibrant movement of young climate leaders capable of influencing policy, mobilizing action, and accelerating sustainable change.

Accordingly, the Strategic Communications and Youth Engagement Officer will champion communication and engagement approaches that:

• Center youth voices, lived experiences, and leadership in all communications and public engagement.
• Amplify African-led climate solutions, innovation, research and locally led action.
• Position AYCF and its grantees as credible thought leaders and changemakers in climate finance and climate governance.
• Promote climate justice, equity, inclusion, and meaningful youth participation in climate decision-making processes.
• Challenge narratives that diminish the agency, expertise, and leadership of young people.
• Use storytelling, digital engagement, and strategic communications to inspire action, influence policy, mobilize support, and strengthen public understanding of youth-led climate solutions.
• Translate program evidence, research, and learning into compelling communication products that inform policy, practice, and investment.
• Foster collaboration, peer learning, and a sense of community among AYCF grantees, alumni, youth networks, and partners across Africa.
• Ensure that all communications uphold the highest standards of accuracy, ethical storytelling, informed consent, dignity, inclusion, and respectful representation.
• Strengthen AYCF’s visibility and reputation as Africa’s leading youth-led climate fund and a trusted platform for advancing youth leadership in climate action.

Through this approach, AYCF seeks not only to communicate its work but also to reshape narratives, elevate youth voices, strengthen collective action, and build a continent-wide movement where young Africans are recognized as equal partners in designing, financing, and delivering solutions to the climate crisis.

Purpose of the Position

The Programs and Community Support Manager will provide strategic leadership for the coordination, implementation support, quality assurance, learning, and community-facing dimensions of AYCF’s program portfolio. The role will ensure that AYCF-funded initiatives are programmatically coherent, technically supported, youth-centered, and capable of generating meaningful evidence, learning, and impact. Working closely with the Grants and Operations Manager, the role will support grantees from post-award onboarding through implementation, learning, reporting, and program reflection, while the Grants and Operations function leads grant administration, compliance, contracting, disbursement coordination, and formal close-out processes.

As AYCF expands its investment in youth-led climate action, the programs and Community Support Manager will champion a grantee-centered approach that recognizes youth-led organizations as long-term partners rather than short-term funding recipients. The role will cultivate strong relationships with grantees, facilitate peer learning and collaboration, strengthen institutional capacities, and promote adaptive program management that responds to emerging opportunities and challenges.

Through effective program management, grantee accompaniment, and continuous learning, the programs and Community  Support Manager will help position AYCF as a trusted partner to Africa’s youth climate entrepreneurs, innovators, researchers and movement, ensuring that investments in young climate leaders translate into scalable solutions, stronger organizations, and transformative impacts for communities and ecosystems across the continent.

​

We are led by those most affected by injustice, particularly from the Global South, ensuring the movement reflects the cultural and demographic reality of the world. We understand art as praxis — an active force capable of mobilizing people, shifting narratives, and reshaping systems. Our cultural work is inseparable from struggles for justice, ecological integrity, and collective liberation.

​

The movement connects artists, cultural workers, and activists across regions, building the infrastructure, relationships, and resources for Artivism to lead lasting change.

Core Principles & Structure

These principles shape how the movement works, how decisions are made, and what is asked of those who join.

• Global Majority Leadership and South–South Solidarity.
• Distributed Power and Fluid Leadership.
• Artists at the Center, Culture as Strategy.
• Intersectional and Community-Centered.
• Trust Before Scale.
• Emergence as Method.
• Transparency and Accountability.
   

Global Artivism is governed by a Global Council representing artists, activists, and movement builders from across regions. The Movement Secretariat is the coordination team that supports the Council operationally.

The Engagement

Global Artivism is contracting an Operations Fellow for a mentored, time-limited engagement focused on organizational infrastructure and systems design. The contractor will work alongside the Operations Director to design operational frameworks, from financial workflows and contractor management to governance alignment and onboarding processes, contributing directly to infrastructure decisions while building practical experience in how a Global Majority-led movement organization functions operationally. The Fellow is expected to contribute to operational development work, take initiative on assigned tasks, and grow through structured mentorship and engagement with the work.

​

This is an independent contractor engagement managed through Global Artivism’s fiscal sponsorship structure with Res Publica US Inc. The contractor sets their own working hours and methods, may provide services to other clients, and is responsible for their own taxes, insurance, and any local registrations or compliance requirements in their country of residence.

Coordination Relationships

• The contractor will coordinate primarily with the Operations Director, and will work alongside the Governance Lead, Project Manager, Admin Coordinator, and Movement Secretariat members on agreed deliverables.

• ​Help ensure operational systems align with governance frameworks and democratic decision-making principles.

Systems Documentation & Knowledge Systems

• Create operational guidance and toolkits that enable distributed teams to handle processes independently.
• Build internal knowledge systems (documentation, checklists, decision trees) that make operational work transparent and transferable.

Capacity Building and Research

• Identify areas where documentation, process clarification, or systems redesign could enable teams to work more independently.
• Flag patterns in operational bottlenecks or inefficiencies and help think through solutions.
• Share learning from infrastructure work with Council, Committees, and teams as appropriate.
• Research operational models relevant to Global Artivism’s structure.

Qualifications

Required

• Manages multiple tasks and meets deadlines, with strong attention to detail and comfort coordinating logistics across a distributed team.
