How We Do It
Building Public-Private-Youth consortiums to co-create programs for and with young people

Civically engaged young people have always been a powerful force for change. As the world's first public-private-youth partnership (PPYP), we bring together global organizations and leaders with young people to co-create and deliver, on a global scale, innovative solutions to the challenges that youth face.


Creating a global public-private-youth coalition for young people.

GenU was established as the world's first public-private-youth partnership (PPYP), bringing together global organizations and leaders with young people to co-create and deliver, on a global scale, innovative solutions to the challenges that youth face. No single entity can solve these issues alone. Instead, our innovative operating model builds consortiums of partners who combine their unique capabilities, assets and reach to deliver change at scale.
Young people have the creativity and the resilience needed to tackle the social challenges that affect us. They're at the heart of Generation Unlimited, driving purposeful action as equal partners and creating unique solutions to the world’s biggest problems.
Young People's Action Team (YPAT)
At GenU, young people guide the partnership every step of the way, co-creating our agenda and forming a centerpiece of our governance structure.
Representing some of the brightest young people across the globe, the dynamic Young People’s Action Team (YPAT) of over 50 youth leaders representing over 100+ countries steers the partnership and ensures that the voices of young people are represented.
