Vision

Our vision is to build a global network of changemakers—youth, youth workers, and innovators—who don’t just talk about change but actively drive it. We believe that the strength of our work lies not in our size, but in the values and message we embody. Together, we aim to empower individuals and communities, fostering partnerships that transcend boundaries, cultures, and nationalities.

By our 30th anniversary, we envision a world interconnected by a series of (em)power plants—hubs of inspiration, collaboration, and capacity-building—that equip young people with the tools to shape an equal, happy, healthy, and just society.

Through our focus on equality, social justice, intercultural understanding, and the transformative power of arts, culture, and non-formal education, we strive to create a world where every individual has the opportunity to contribute, grow, and thrive.

Rooted in The Hague, the international city of peace and justice, we remain committed to igniting global change through local action and building a future defined by collaboration, creativity, and compassion.”
