Mission Statement
We are about one thing: youth leadership. More than ever the world needs young people’s leadership to solve its greatest challenges. Restless Development supports the journey of a young person to become a leader and helps them multiply that leadership in their communities and around the world. Every year we train, mentor, nurture and connect thousands of young people to lead change. Some are social entrepreneurs, setting up businesses to provide for their families and create jobs, others are youth advocates, campaigning on issues like gender equality, climate justice, HIV and many others. No matter the issue, young leaders are working to achieve the same goal: improve their lives and the lives of people in their communities.
About This Cause
Our vision for 2030 is that young people everywhere are able to demand and deliver a just and sustainable world. But, in many places, instead of being listened to and supported to lead change, young people are often ignored and overlooked. Our mission is to change that by supporting young people to be leaders. This includes working with young people to identify problems and work on solutions in their communities, and it also includes supporting young people to advocate for long-lasting change that gets to the root causes of issues, like youth unemployment and climate change. The road map for how we will achieve our vision and mission is outlined in our Strategy and Agency Plan, which are updated every five years. We formed in 1985 and have been working with young people ever since. We work with young people in 74 countries around the world and are led by nine Hubs spread across Africa, Asia, the USA and UK. Young people we train create lasting change around the world. They share their skills and knowledge with other young people and their communities, which helps multiply the impact we are able to achieve. 92% of young people we trained in business skills in Tanzania found employment. 81% of pupils in 200 schools in Nepal took action to stop gender-based violence. 85% of women we trained in Sierra Leone joined a sustainable savings group.
