Call for young content creators in Georgia: social media campaign on waste reduction and recycling
The European Union and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) are inviting young bloggers, vloggers, and social media content creators from across Georgia to design and implement social media campaigns on waste reduction and recycling.
The campaign aims to engage young people and use their creativity and social media platforms to raise awareness about waste reduction, recycling, reuse, and responsible consumption, while promoting more sustainable lifestyles.
To support this goal, the campaign will bring together young content creators who can turn environmental issues into engaging, accessible, and relatable content for young audiences.
Participants do not need to be professional influencers or have a large following. Creativity, a good understanding of their audience, and the ability to communicate ideas in ways that inform, engage, and inspire people to take action are what matter most.
The competition is open to young residents of Georgia who are 18-29 years old, and create content on TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, X, or other social media platforms.
Young women and men from all regions of Georgia, including underserved and diverse communities, are particularly encouraged to apply.
Campaigns may focus on waste reduction and prevention, collection and recycling of used batteries, E-waste recycling, packaging and waste sorting, reuse and repair, circular economy and responsible consumption, and sustainable and environmentally responsible lifestyles.
Up to 12 selected participants will develop and implement their campaigns during January-March 2027 (3 months). They will take part in training and mentoring activities and create and publish the agreed content through their own social media channels. The project also offers a GEL 3,000 implementation award to develop and deliver the campaign.
The deadline for applications is 1 November.
The campaign is implemented under the EU-funded project ‘Circular Economy: Waste Reduction and Recycling for Citizens’ Health’.
