We believe the youth are instrumental in society’s progression because they have the power to change political systems that marginalize youth. With their sense of social awareness and commitment to social action, which reconnects to community values, will create civic-minded leaders that will model and lead the next generation to proactively and passionately serve their communities. This empowerment will bring forth leadership from the grassroots perspective using a “bottom-up" approach, thereby establishing and supporting better communities, good citizenship, and ultimately positive global responsibility.
