FORM A TEAM
OR JOIN ONE, unless you prefer to act by yourself 🙂
You can act on your own, as many successful hero*ines. But as a team, you’ll boost your fun, reach, talent and impact. We differ 3 forms of YOUTH teams, defined by pace and space of operation. For ADULTS, scroll down.
Youth
organize in our #BeMoreAwesome program for youth age 8 to 18.
You sign up as individual and decide on your own favorite pace and activities.
We propose these 3 models for general orientation and also to nudge you to #bemoreawesome.
View how to team up with Adult Allies, Hero*ines and Partners below!
Adults…
act not in formal YL Teams but rather with their own local teams in what we call an Extended Team Community.
Adults meet and interact with people in these 4 spheres. This already gives you ideas.
Adults.
We don’t have local YL Adult Teams, but YL Resources and Activities help quickly connect with like-hearted friends, fellow citizens and allies that appear along the way and respond to your presence in public and media to develop a self-defined “team” and “friendly community”.
The YL Boost Club
Most adult citizens join our community via the YL Boost Club to inspire and support youth leadership through donations, in-kind support or even teaming up with hero*ines.
Membership is largely informal like any passionate online community. You can of course inspire friends, colleagues and citizens to form a local Boost Club team to rock big numbers and reach exciting milestones; which is highly encouraged. We may make this an official YL Team format in the future.

YL Online Volunteers
Another community in YL is our Online Volunteers that work on co-creating YL Magazine, translate YL publications, boost our social media reach etc.

Collaborative Projects
are a major activity besides boosting hero*ines and youth leadership in general.
Examples are Project Partnerships to boost hero*ines’ ventures, collaboration to spark Youth Leadership in their institution, town or refugee camp, activate a school, realize the SDG School Challenge, co-create a Local Positive News Magazine or help activate and evolve a LearnSpace. Many of these activities get them on our global LearnPlanet Map as member of the YL Tribe that one can find, connect and interact with for projects of your common interest and own design … that you report back and feed into the global tribe to inspire others and potentially find partners for more.
As we take on these exciting, multiplex ventures we naturally step by step connect with many people through our outreach media and offers. It’s not what one commonly understands as team, but we should name it, since these are people sharing our passion for youth leadership and positive change, and it is more than a network, more like a lose, extended team, so we may call it a
“Team Community”
This web of like-hearted Allies is most apparent for YL Learnspaces, but all YL Coaches and #bemoreawesome Crash Course Phase 4 absolvents share this view of their city, region and inhabitants full of resources, relations, spaces, key professionals and character classes to get activated.
