BECOME A SUPPORTER
For over a decade, Global Citizen Year has provided innovative and immersive learning programs to thousands of young people from around the world equipping them with the perspectives, skills and networks needed to create meaningful impact on local and global issues.
These collective efforts have inspired us to launch our newest program: Take Action Lab, a pioneering immersive educational experience. This immersive learning program recruits promising future changemakers from across the globe and helps them develop the emotional and intellectual toolkit needed to drive social impact throughout their lives. Join us in preparing a new generation with the skills to advance community-centered action locally and around the world.
