Youth Giving Summit

The first-ever Virtual Youth Giving Summit consisted of four distinct parts, each moderated by the CEO of The International Social Impact Institute and centered around the Institute's core themes of inspiration, connection, activation, and transformation.

Throughout the summit, the overarching message emphasized the significance of building communities and fostering collaborative efforts towards creating positive change in the world.

This impactful session delved into catalyzing the global impact of youth through the power of inspiration. Hear from three intergenerational speakers from Bangladesh and South Africa who shared their personal stories and actionable advice for young change-makers:

  • Professor Muhammad Yunus (2006 Nobel Peace Laureate and Founder, Grameen Bank),
  • Siyabulela Mandela, PhD (Regional Project Manager East and Southern Africa, Journalists for Human Rights), and
  • Mr. Mohaiminul Raqib (Founder, BIHDP/Member, 3ZERO Club).

Join us as we explore the transformative power of inspiration and learn how to make a difference in your community.
