A bit about our community
City-based hubs are the core of the Global Shapers Community of 10,107 shapers in 446 hubs around the world in 151 countries. Each hub is required to undertake an impact-generating project to better their local community. Additionally, hubs organize workshops, meetings with leaders, and other activities that increase its members’ capacity for impact as current and future leaders. Hub activities are non-political, non-partisan, and always focused on the great public good.
Mission
To build a global community of outstanding young people committed to improving the state of the world. With its motto: Shape Your Future – integrating the personal, the community and the global dimension – the Global Shapers Community enables youth to be a voice for the future in local, regional, and global thought processes and a catalyst of entrepreneurship in the global public interest.
