Green skills training programme
India Palmer at Warwick University is currently recruiting applicants for a green skills training programme, aimed at 18-30 year olds.
The programme is designed for anyone passionate about climate action and wanting to build future-ready green skills while connecting with peers across the UK and India.
Climate change is one of the defining challenges of our generation — and young people are at the forefront of shaping the solutions. While many aspire to pursue green careers, awareness of green skills and career pathways remains limited. This creates an urgent need to equip youth with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to lead sustainable transformation.
To address this, The Energy & Resources Institute (TERI) and the Warwick Manufacturing Group (WMG) at the University of Warwick are launching Innovate4Environment; a UK–India Youth Skills Partnership Programme, an initiative funded by the Climate Skills Global Collaboration Grant from the British Council.
The programme offers a series of hybrid training workshops for hands-on experience in:
• Climate science
• Renewable energy
• Waste and water management
• Nature-based solutions
• Sustainable agriculture
• Circular economy
• Climate-focused innovation
Each workshop combines expert masterclasses, practical activities, collaborative problem-solving labs, and both online and in-person engagement.
The programme will take the form of 6 days fixed commitment plus mentor supported time across a six-month period, to develop a prototype solution to a climate and sustainability challenge. It culminates in a hybrid national camp, where participants will showcase their prototypes to a distinguished jury of policymakers, industry leaders, and sustainability experts.
