Changing the world – one hub at a time
Driving social change locally, impacting globally
Our Mission
The Global Shapers Community, an initiative of the World Economic Forum, is an international network of young leaders. Created to empower youth to self-organize for impact and to amplify the voice of young leaders, the Shapers Community is a network of over 300 city-based hubs full of change-makers looking to positively impact the world.
Here in Cleveland, we believe there are hundreds of energetic citizens looking for a way to positively impact our city.
Our hub's goal is to leverage the passion of this diverse group of young leaders to create local change through a global lens by sparking critical conversations, prototyping design solutions, supporting community partners through project sprints, and approaching problems through the lens of human-centered design.
