About Us!
Our young planet leaders are the catalyst for a global transformation, inspiring a movement to protect and restore our planet for generations to come.
Young Planet Leaders is a platform where young leaders receive recognition and support for their creativity, passion, and accomplishments to create a significant positive impact for our planet and all its inhabitants, while inspiring others to do the same.
Just like the ability of one candle to ignite thousands of other candles without diminishing its own flame, Young Planet Leaders aims to illuminate a movement towards collective consciousness by highlighting the meaningful endeavors of young people around the globe. We imagine a planet where all youth are supported and inspired to be Young Planet Leaders, connecting with, and encouraging one another to create an ideal planet where everyone can thrive.
WHAT WE’RE ABOUT!
Young Planet Leaders is based on the idea that our overall well-being is directly related to our own self-awareness and the role we see ourselves playing in society. We know the importance of believing in our ability to effect change in the world around us, and Young Planet Leaders embody this spirit as they guide the next generation in transforming our planet. A Young Planet Leader envisions a world where, through individual and collective involvement, real change can be realized.
A planet where each person looks within and takes full accountability for their own part to create a planet that is more compassionate, accepting, non-judgmental, and unconditionally loving. Each Young Planet Leader sees a oneness and unbounded potential of our collective energy. Young Planet Leaders transcend the norm and fearlessly take action for the betterment of all, thereby creating a planetary shift in both environmental consciousness and wellbeing.
Our Mission!
Our mission is to feature, inspire and empower young leaders who use their creativity and actions to create a healthier, happier and more sustainable planet.
We are committed to supporting these young leaders who encourage and inspire others to make a difference.
A goal is a desired result that a person or a system envisions, plans and commits to achieve. Goals can be long-term, intermediate, or short-term. The primary difference is the time required to achieve them.
We believe that time is of the essence in the journey to create a more just, kind, loving, and sustainable planet. We are proud to support our incredible young leaders as they work diligently to achieve their goals and generate profound positive change for the current challenges facing our planet.
