The New Global Citizen: Harnessing Youth Leadership to Reshape Civil Society (Rhize report 2016)

October 9, 2016

This report explores how the global development sector has not kept pace with the changing ways youth seek to create social change, creating a disconnect between formal civil society and the majority of youth leaders.

Without understanding this new model of global citizenship—what the report calls “participatory citizenship,” Rhize argues that international development institutions will continue to miss the innovative, networked energy of youth leaders who are motivated, and activated but who need better support to achieve collective global impact. This report analyzes these gaps, opportunities and outlines a path forward through a new “Collective Civic Participation Framework”.
