The Young Leaders is a global network for socially active youth to join together and become a part of the Young Leaders Council.

January 2009 marks the beginning of a 4 year roll out plan, with a video contest to choose the winners to attend the first annual YOUNG LEADERS GLOBAL SUMMIT 09.09.09 - 09.10.11 in San Francisco, CA - USA. The following years will continue building the council with 75 members each year to determine the youth who will lead the way with hands-on projects to make humanitarian shifts in the following areas: Economic Development, Literacy, Environment, Social Change, and Creative Expression.
