One Young World

About Us

One Young World is a UK based charity and the global forum for young leaders. We believe there is a troubling lack of leadership in today's world and we firmly believe young people show more moral courage, bravery and activism than many people in power. We focus on platforming the work these young people do from protests for justice, legal reform to start ups in the tech space.

Every year we convene over 2000 young leaders from over 196 different countries in a different city of the world in our annual Summit which is the most international event second only to the Olympics. We also run online campaigns and conduct outreach to our 12k+ community of young leaders. We have had world leaders such as Dr Jane Goodall, Lewis Hamilton, Edward Enninful, Environmentalist and Supermodel Doutzen Kroes, Terry Crews, Nobel Laureate Professor Yunus, Ellie Goulding, Sir Richard Branson, Emma Watson, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Cher contribute to our events.
