Overview
I won a competitive $10K grant from the 2024 Citizen Action Diplomacy Fund (funded by US Department of State) to implement YES-P, a 12-week climate leadership and exchange program for 60 high school and university students from Indonesia, Nigeria, and the USA. YES-P combined virtual trainings with local capstone group projects and in-person biodiversity field trips. As team co-lead, I oversaw a global team of 5 (+ 23 volunteers), managed project logistics/budget, and helped facilitate weekly learning sessions and activities.
