The AU-EU Youth Voices Lab – Power of the Collective, part of the AU-EU Youth Lab, is a four-year initiative aimed at fostering inclusive and youth-responsive societies across Africa and Europe. Implemented by five partners - Oxfam, Restless Development, Search for Common Ground, Youthmakers Hub, and ComDev Africa and co-funded by the European Union in partnership with the African Union, the initiative supports meaningful youth engagement and partnerships with decision-makers, including governments, CSOs, and corporations.
The AU-EU Youth Voices Lab is looking for a young filmmaker ready to tell stories that inspire change. The AU–EU Youth Voices Lab – Power of the Collective is launching a rolling recruitment campaign to build a diverse database of emerging filmmakers across Africa and Europe.
This opportunity is open to creatives aged 18-35. Selected filmmakers will join a pre-vetted network and be engaged on a project basis to document youth-led advocacy, community impact, and social transformation.
Participants will produce short documentaries (3–15 minutes), social media edits, and event highlights that amplify the voices of young people driving change in their communities. These stories will contribute to cross-continental dialogue and visibility.
Filmmakers will receive grants ranging from €765 to €1800 per project, along with opportunities to collaborate with international partners and expand their professional portfolio.
If you have experience in storytelling, filming, and editing, and a passion for social impact, this is your chance to highlight youth voices through your lens.
