About WFF Young Scientists Group (YSG)

The WFF Young Scientists Group (YSG) was launched in 2022 as the main body providing scientific evidence and technical knowledge to the various initiatives of the WFF, including, but not limited to, the Youth Assembly, Innovation Lab, and Education Programme. This support culminates in the publication of a biennial report on specific technical issues of particular concern to youth related to agrifood systems transformation.

Working under two-year cohorts, the working composition of the YSG aligns with the FAO Four Betters – better production, better nutrition, better environment and better life – and, through that, follow specific Programme Priority Areas (PPA) to direct their work.

Leveraging FAO areas of expertise and engaging with partners and relevant academic networks, the YSG plays a critical role in providing the WFF with the necessary science-based direction and allows for formal scientific opinions related to documents, statements or action-oriented proposals generated by the participating youth.

Calls are now open for the 2025-2027 cohort. If you are interested in being part of the WFF YSG, please check the terms of reference, the working protocol and the selection criteria before applying through this form.
