OCIC Youth Policy-Makers Hub Mentor

The Ontario Council for International Cooperation’s (OCIC) Youth Policy-Makers Hub (YPH) is an inter-generational initiative that will engage diverse youth from across Ontario in international cooperation policy processes in support of Gender Equality, Canada’s Feminist International Assistance Policy (FIAP) action areas, and the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

In order to support our youth members, we are looking for Mentors with experience in these topics and across multiple sectors to support and amplify the efforts of our YPH members.

Are you:
> involved in or leading policy-focused programs and processes at the local, sub-national, national or international level and interested in helping to strengthen the capacity of diverse youth leaders to take part in policy-making arenas?
> keen on learning and sharing your experience, expertise and ideas with others in the international cooperation and other sectors about youth-led approaches to policy-making processes with regards to gender equality and the other SDGs?

If so, you could be a Mentor for our upcoming cohort! For more information and a preview of the application questions go to: https://www.ocic.on.ca/programs/youth-policy-makers-hub/
