Who we are

The Global Youth Leadership Development Council (GYLDC), based in Singapore, develops young leaders through hands-on programs in climate action, social entrepreneurship, policy advocacy, and sustainable innovation. In partnership with UN agencies, NGOs, and universities, we provide training, mentorship, and global platforms for youth to design solutions and drive progress toward the UN SDGs.

LEARN MORE

Today’s 1.8 billion young people face urgent challenges—climate change, inequality, and unemployment—yet remain underrepresented in decision-making. Strengthening their leadership is essential to advancing sustainable solutions and shaping an equitable future.

Together, we provide the tools, networks, and opportunities for youth to lead meaningful change locally and globally.
