Our Mission
World Bridges fosters international cooperation between young people of color from low-income backgrounds, and provides them with opportunities to gain global perspectives on the social justice issues that impact their lives. Through participatory training and community-based projects in both the U.S. and abroad, we engage emerging leaders in diverse strategies for effecting social change. Click here for more photos!
Meet the 2008 participants!
Tuesday April 1, 2008
The Leadership Exchange Program is in full swing this year with 10 new participants. This year’s emerging young leaders were chosen from a large pool of applicants because of their demonstrated commitment to working for social justice in the Bay Area. They are role models for youth in their communities – mentoring young people in the neighborhood, inspiring them through art and journalism, and building coalitions to take action on issues that affect them.
