Overview

An initiative from the World Economic Forum, the Global Shapers Community is a network of inspiring young people under the age of 30 working together to address local, regional and global challenges. With more than 7,000 members, the Global Shapers Community spans 425 city-based hubs in 148 countries. In each city, teams of Shapers self-organise to create projects that address the needs of their community. Projects focus on the areas of education, diversity and inclusion and climate change. Shapers are diverse in expertise, education, income and race, but are united by their desire to bring about change. We have a mission of creating the Sydney Hub to be a network of diverse change makers and to be the voice of youth. We cultivate a positive impact in Sydney through collaborative work with local associations and NGOs.
