About Young United World Leaders

Preparing leaders focused on actual impact.

Young United World Leaders is an initiative of United World Leaders for leaders under 30: whether you are in high school, in college, starting your career or already a successful professional.

Our purpose

To prepare the next generation of world leaders, committed to elevating the well-being of humanity, and to help them transform ideas into impactful global action.

Young United World Leaders is dedicated to preparing the next generation of true world leaders: leaders who are focused on creating actual impact.

It offers mentorship from people who have carried the responsibility of governing, and responsibility of its own: Young Leaders initiate and lead projects and invite other young people to join them. Outstanding initiatives can receive Young World Leader Awards.

Through Young UWL, educational programmes, mentorship and engagement with global leaders, United World Leaders prepares emerging leaders to assume meaningful roles in their communities, nations and the world, and to contribute to initiatives creating real impact today.
