Youth STEM Changemakers gives YOUth the chance to build impactful STEM solutions to the world's biggest sustainability challenges 🌍

Our Entrepreneurs for Impact (Scotland) edition will equip 30 youth aged 16-24 from across Scotland with the skills, tools and networks to develop ambitious and innovative STEM-based projects, which provide entrepreneurial solutions to real-world sustainability challenges. You'll access a 10 week hybrid programme of learning focussing on creating impact through entrepreneurship and local & global climate/sustainability challenges, and be immersed in a leadership/personal development journey with ambitious peers as you create impactful STEM-based projects.

We’re looking for a diverse group of young people (age 16-24) from across Scotland, who each have different skills and strengths, and share a determination for building a better future. You'll be passionate about solving a specific sustainability-related issue, and up for the challenge of creating something that matters. Your ambition, resilience, resourcefulness and passion for the issue are much more important to us than your past experience, and no matter whether you consider yourself to be entrepreneurial or not, we’d love to receive your application!

Before applying, please consider whether you are able to commit to the schedule of live workshops in January-March 2024, and to working on your project in your own time. We also encourage you to read the full details about this opportunity on our website.

Applications close Tuesday 16th January, 5pm GMT.

This question helps us to measure our success in impacting a diverse group of young people.
