About the Young Water Fellowship<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Are you a young person with an idea for how to tackle water and sanitation problems in Bangladesh? The Young Water Fellowship empowers young leaders to become social entrepreneurs, providing solutions to water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) issues in their communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

YGAP Bangladesh has partnered up with Young Water Solutions to launch the first edition of their flagship Young Water Fellowship program in Bangladesh (YWFBD). The program works with young leaders and their teams to develop new or existing social businesses. The goal is to improve social or environmental conditions, mainstream gender equality, and reduce youth unemployment at the local level. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to that, addressing SDG #6: clean water and sanitation for all is also a part of the mission. The YWFBD program offers participants a full year of support consisting of training, funding for their initiatives, and continuous mentoring from subject-matter experts during the implementation of a pilot project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
