Community Leadership Among Youth Worldwide

07Jan11

In working within the specific fields of global education and service-learning, we often come across some pretty amazing stories about youth leaders around the world, leading change in unique and inspiring ways.

To start off the year, we decided to share a story about a Grade 6 classroom in Ahmedabad, India, who “infected” India with the courage to lead change through innovation. View their story here:

“Children were designing solutions to a diverse range of problems – right from loneliness, to filling potholes on the street, to alcoholism, and 32 children who stopped 16 marriages in Rajasthan… it was incredible”

“So how can we stay immune? How can we stay immune to that passion, that energy, that excitement?”

Here’s to 2011, a year of global awareness and informed action among youth, leading change towards a more just world.
