We received almost 100 applications from our Chapters globally, and after careful review by our diverse selection committee, we are proud to announce the 15 Chapters that will receive funding to implement projects tackling peace and education at the grassroots level. At a time when the global context is increasingly shaped by conflict and division, we are especially encouraged to be able to support and announce these inspiring youth-led initiatives focused on peace and education. The selected projects demonstrate the creativity, resilience, and leadership of young changemakers.
From advancing inclusive education in Brazil to leading peer-driven peace initiatives in Indonesia, expanding access to education for refugees in Uganda, and fostering inclusion between refugees and local communities in Germany, these projects highlight the power of youth to drive meaningful change in their communities.
State of Youth is the first non-political, non-religious digital “youth state” that transcends borders to unite young people worldwide. We are a global grassroots movement created for youth, by youth (ages 12–29). Interested in joining the movement? Sign up here!
