Mission Statement

**OUR MISSION:** To empower young people to collaborate locally, regionally, and globally as changemakers who build inclusive project-based sustainable solutions that address our shared global issues. **OUR VISION:** An empowered global Network led by young changemakers who nurture and mobilize transgenerational communities of local-global citizens to build an inclusive, equitable and sustainable world.

About This Cause

**OUR IMPACT:** Over the last 16 years, we have collectively organized 150 regional and local GIN conferences on 5 continents. To date, more than 5000 student led project-based sustainable solutions (GIN Projects) have been shared at our student-led GIN Conferences and around the world through our platforms. **WHAT WE DO:** Youth-Led Community-Centered Collaboration and Learning that Creates Local-Global Change **GIN PROJECT TEAM:** We equip GIN Students with the skills they need to lead today and empower them as global citizens who value, build, and develop sustainable and equitable systemic solutions. A GIN project can take many forms. It is an expression of passion and a result of effective collaboration. A GIN project is focused on working to sustainably address global issues in your direct community. GIN student teams develop GIN projects through dialogue and research in their community driven by their self-identified passion. Student teams are expected to create a sustainable GIN project based on community identified needs and issues while, incorporating and tying together the following thinking frameworks to effect change: historical methodologies, cultural perspectives, community-centered empathetic action, as well as sustainable design and systems thinking. Within this process, students formulate a shared understanding, expression, and implementation of local solutions to global problems. ** GINETWORK SCHOOLS:** A global network of school who nurture student-led GIN Projects, Clubs, GINetworks. Our GIN Schools prioritize and value local-global civic engagement and lifelong learning while foster relationships that empower our local, regional and global communities. ** GINETWORKS & GIN CONFERENCES:** Our local, regional and global Networks gather virtually and in-person to problem-solve, collaborate and share how to create lasting impact in partnership with their local-global transgenerational community of leaders, change-makers, and scientists.
