At the IFRC Limitless Youth Innovation Academy, we believe that young people hold the key to the solutions our world urgently needs. When connected with the right resources and knowledge, these youth innovators rise to the challenge, addressing climate change, environmental crises, and empowering communities in every corner of the globe.
We are proud to unveil the 105 groundbreaking projects selected to continue their journey in the Academy. This isn’t just about innovation—it’s about the power of youth in action. These initiatives are proof that when young people are supported, they’re capable of achieving incredible things.
What’s Next?
In this new phase, we’ll focus on transforming early-stage ideas into fully developed functional prototypes, ready to be tested and scaled for greater impact. Each selected innovator will receive:
Specialized mentoring and advanced training from global experts to help refine their innovations, ensuring they are more impactful and scalable.
Up to CHF 2,000 in additional funding to develop a more advanced prototype.
The opportunity to compete for up to CHF 8,000 in funding and more expert mentoring, with up to 10 final projects selected for full implementation.
Even beyond this program, the IFRC Limitless Youth Innovation Academy remains committed to supporting all innovators, providing access to grants, partnerships, and global networks, ensuring every project has the opportunity to thrive and grow.
