TakingITGlobal

TakingITGlobal is one of the world's leading networks of young people learning about, engaging with, and working towards tackling global challenges. TakingITGlobal empowers youth to understand and act on local and global challenges.

To truly empower young people to become agents of positive change in their local and global communities, everyone has an important role to play. This means creating opportunities for youth to get involved and grow regardless of where they are in the world. TakingITGlobal brings together like-minded youth to take part in programmes that span across the world. From micro-mentorship helping young entrepreneurs get their ideas off the ground, to nation-wide art competitions, to online petitions.

What does TakingITGlobal offer?

TakingITGlobal has a big community with high engagement. They believe that positive change can only be achieved when every member of society is actively involved in supporting young people reach his or her full potential. By bringing together Digital Youth Engagement, Global Education and Social Innovation programming, they seek to empower youth and their allies to ensure every young person and their interest has a place to learn, grow and flourish. Articles about the global issues are posted monthly by the community and everyone has the opportunity to become a TIG blogger and inspire others. You can sign up here.

I reccomend checking some of the topics, blogs and global issues, they tie in with the SDG's from the UN.
