Written by Abigail Chifusa, Global Schools Project Officer


In celebration of International Youth Day on August 12, 2023, the Global Schools Program (GSP) embarked on a remarkable campaign that not only showcased the incredible impact of the program but also highlighted the invaluable experiences of its dedicated volunteers. 


August 12 marked a day of inspiration, reflection, and empowerment as the GSP community came together to commemorate this important occasion. The International Youth Day campaign was a resounding success, bringing attention to the power of education and youth involvement in global issues. 


Through a series of engaging content, the campaign shed light on the meaningful contributions of GSP volunteers and the transformative experiences they gained from being part of this extraordinary initiative.


GSP volunteers from various corners of the world generously shared their inspiring journeys during the campaign. 


Their stories spoke of the profound impact the program had on both the volunteers and the communities they worked with. From facilitating workshops on sustainability and climate change to organizing awareness campaigns, these volunteers demonstrated their unwavering commitment to creating positive change.

International Youth Day holds immense significance, particularly for GSP. This day serves as a reminder of the potential and passion that young people bring to the table. It's a platform that recognizes their capacity to drive social change, advocate for sustainable development, and champion causes that resonate with them.


For the GSP, which focuses on empowering young people to become global citizens and take action on critical issues, International Youth Day aligned perfectly with its mission. The organization is centered around empowering young minds to be active participants in creating a better world. By celebrating International Youth Day, GSP underscores the importance of nurturing young voices, perspectives, and aspirations.


This day provided an opportunity to showcase the remarkable outcomes achieved by GSP participants and volunteers who are contributing to positive change on a global scale.


Furthermore, the International Youth Day campaign by GSP was a powerful testament to the potential of young people to make a difference.

Through the dedication of its volunteers and the impact of its initiatives, GSP is shaping a brighter future by equipping the next generation with the knowledge, skills, and motivation to tackle the world's most pressing challenges.


As we reflect on this year's campaign, let us be inspired to continue supporting youth empowerment and fostering a global community of change-makers.
