How it works
The program lasts for 12 months and actively guides participants to transform their project ideas into tangible realities. It breaks down into three essential learning areas: personal sustainability, environmental sustainability, and business sustainability.
Furthermore, participants actively engage in attending local and global summits, enriching their understanding and connecting with peers who share similar goals.
Upon successfully finishing the program, participants join the beVisioneers Ambassador Program. This opportunity actively empowers them to refine their leadership skills, broaden their network, and amplify their positive influence within the community.
Grants for the project
Participants in the beVisioneers program don’t have to pay anything because the organisation provides financial help.
This assistance is given to help participants who might face challenges with costs or other logistical issues.
Additionally, grants will be given to the projects that show the most promise in making a positive impact on the environment.

- Age 16 to 28
