The Youth4Water Grants program is designed to support young people and youth-led organizations across Africa in implementing innovative, community-driven initiatives focused on water.
.
By leveraging the network of the UNCCD Youth Caucus and the resources of Protectol’s Water Initiative, this program enables youth to tackle challenges related to clean water, sanitation, and community resilience while promoting sustainable development.

The program seeks to strengthen youth-led solutions that increase access to safe and clean water, raise awareness about hydration and sanitation, and build the capacity of youth organizations to design and deliver impactful projects. These initiatives also contribute to advancing Sustainable Development Goal 6, which focuses on clean water and sanitation.
