The FAO World Food Forum's Young Scientists Group is recruiting its 2027–2029 cohort of young researchers (aged 18–35, enrolled in or graduated from a graduate programme, and nationals of FAO Member States) to provide scientific evidence and technical knowledge to the WFF Youth Initiative. Members commit roughly 20 hours per month over two years to produce a biennial evidence-based report on youth and agrifood systems transformation, with applications closing 29 January 2027 via the WFF youth portal.
Submissions are reviewed on a rolling basis against the criteria below. SAIGE captures your intent to apply — linking this opportunity to your business profile — before handing you off to World Food Forum (WFF) Youth Initiative, hosted by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO)’s official application. This keeps your activity in one place and helps us surface better matches over time.
