This African Youth International Internship seeks to provide international experience to Black youth, non-binary, and other gender youth, with a priority focus on Black women. Empowerment Squared will offer 100 placements of eight months each focusing on gender-empowering educational research and inclusive growth, as well as climate change mitigation, adaptation and environmental research. Through the transformative professional skills development and experience gained while participating in international development internships in the Sub-Saharan African, the project aims to enhance employment rights of the targeted youth.
