This is with good reason. Not since 2014, has China, the US, Europe and most of the world\u2019s major economies been able to align their climate pledges. With buy-in from East Asian powerhouses Japan and South Korea, and the UK investing heavily in its diplomatic influence across the Commonwealth, it is right to project that COP26 could indeed be a turning point for the global climate movement.<\/p>\n<p>In spite of all this, there are far too many hurdles to jump over for journalists from the Global South to be represented at the climate negotiations. From low vaccination levels to travel restrictions and skyrocketing airfares, the obstacles are multifaceted.<\/p>\n<p>This is why, this year we\u2019re working to bring 5 young journalists from the Global South residing in Europe or the UK to this year\u2019s climate negotiations.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"has-luminous-vivid-orange-color has-text-color\"><strong>YOUR COP26 OPPORTUNITY<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Our in-person fellows will include a small team of 5 highly experienced journalists from the Global South who will be able to assist in providing training to an external team as well as support a wider global network of 20 online writers to publish stories.<\/p>\n<p>Both the in-person and online teams will be supported by a dedicated member of Climate Tracker\u2019s remote team.<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Deadline to Apply: Monday 20th September, 2021<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons aligncenter\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-luminous-vivid-orange-background-color has-background\" href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/cop26-in-person-reg\">APPLY TODAY<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<h3 class=\"has-luminous-vivid-orange-color has-text-color\"><strong>YOUR COMMITMENT AS A COP26 FELLOW\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong><em>Once selected, we will get the ball rolling really quickly!
