Since 2007, the Global Changemakers project has created a global network that provides opportunities for young people to share experiences and make practical and visible differences in their communities, countries and regions. The British Council, in partnership with the World Economic Forum (WEF) and other international forums such as the UN, supports this network of young activists and social entrepreneurs between the ages of 16 and 25, and develops them into Changemakers, ensuring that the youth voice is heard.
