Our Chapter Program

Since the launch of State of Youth in September 2019 by the KidsRights Foundation, our platform has grown rapidly. Thousands of citizens from all over the world have joined our digital state. Our Instagram focused community is a lively group of young changemakers who feel responsible for the world of tomorrow. Besides the online world, State of Youth will now be represented locally in the offline world as well. Chapters, run by youth, will represent State of Youth amongst their communities in their own countries by spreading the message, increasing awareness, building advocacy and creating action. We rely on you, our Chapters, to bring our mission to life in your community!

Your Involvement is Key
The dictionary defines a chapter as “a local division of a larger organization”. As our Chapter, you will represent State of Youth in your local community. We rely on our Chapters to mobilise as many young people around the Sustainable Development Goals and Children's Rights as possible, anywhere in the world!

As a Chapter Leader you will organize activities to give a voice to youth on the most important issues of our time: the Sustainable Development Goals and Children's Rights. You’ll create activities employing our three pillars: action, awareness and advocacy. Examples of activities could be to organize fundraisers, host workshops or lectures, and establish relationships with local service partners such as other non-profits and local media to raise awareness as well. As a Chapter Leader you are the lead for your local chapter. You are the point of contact for State of Youth, and responsible for the activities and commitment of your chapter.

How Will it Work?
