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.

UNDP works in about 170 countries and territories, helping to achieve the eradication of poverty, and the reduction of inequalities and exclusion. We help countries to develop policies, leadership skills, partnering abilities, institutional capabilities and build resilience in order to sustain development results. UNDP offers integrated technical services for countries, including assistance on eligibility assessment, programme formulation, mobilization of co-financing, implementation oversight, and knowledge and results management.

UNDP also administers the UN Capital Development Fund, which helps developing countries grow their economies by supplementing existing sources of capital assistance by means of grants and loans; and UN Volunteers, which fields over 6,500 volunteers from 160 countries, serving with 38 UN partners in support of peace, security, human rights, humanitarian delivery and development through volunteerism worldwide. UNDP has partnered with the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria since 2003, supporting programmes in countries with limited ability to receive and manage this kind of fund.
