Introduction
Young people have ever been confronted with difficulties. But today’s challenges are of a particular magnitude: growing inequalities, climate change, loss of biodiversity, the health crisis, energy crisis, and issues related to the use of new technologies such as AI, to name but a few.
The complexity of these environmental, economic and societal challenges is testing the limits of our current higher education models. They appear obsolete because they are no longer adapted to the problems faced by young people, but also because they are based on and convey values which no longer seem to make sense to this new generation.
The Higher Education for Good Foundation (HE4G) created Youth Talks to help support educational institutions transform their curricula to meet the needs of the mid-21st century by bringing the voices of the world's youth.
To date, Youth Talks is the biggest consultation of its kind in terms of methodology and results. This first edition has already received approximately 1,000,000 contributions from more than 45,000 young people in 212 countries and territories. Today, the initiative engages with more than 55 partners, including the UN-supported Principles for Responsible Management Education (PRME), as well as top universities, world youth organisations, and political institutions.
