The United Nations Office for Disarmament Affairs (UNODA), with generous funding from the Government of Germany, is inviting young individuals to apply for the 2nd edition of the United Nations Youth Champions for Disarmament Training Program.

This training program is designed to empower young individuals to contribute to disarmament efforts in their communities. It will unite a diverse group of young advocates from various regions, allowing them to exchange their unique regional viewpoints and insights.

The training program adopts a regional approach to gather young disarmament advocates from diverse regions such as Africa, Europe, Asia, the Pacific, the Americas, and the Caribbean. This approach allows participants to share their unique regional insights and link with the global disarmament dialogue. Additionally, the program includes three job opportunities for young professionals with UNODA (United Nations Office for Disarmament Affairs) to help implement regional initiatives.
