Young people around the world are rising to heal people and planet. When they seek to expand their capacity to create change, apply global knowledge to local challenges, and weave their work with other changemakers, they find YouthxYouth.
YouthxYouth is a home for youth activists and adult allies committed to transforming their communities through learning and weaving together, across generations, geographies and differences. We are a global community led by and with youth (ages 15-26) in partnership with a diverse network of allies (of all ages), with the majority of our youth living, learning and working in the Global South.
Our fellowships, intergenerational action circles, “glocal” in-person hubs, and virtual learning festivals are just some of the ways we directly build the capacity of young people — and the youth and adults around them — to reclaim their learning and transform education.
Every dollar of your donation goes to a young person directly, since all of our salaried team members and stipended program facilitators are young people themselves. Moreover, your donation ensures our programs remain accessible, and allows us to cover the cost of internet for those who need it (this year, 70 of our 100 youth program participants and facilitators requested support for internet fees). With rising inflation, the climate crisis, and war hitting our youth and their homes hard, your solidarity is needed now more than ever.
