Becoming the Author of One’s Life: Designing a Learning Ecosystem for Agentic Youth Leadership

In the AI era, education must go beyond knowledge delivery and help young people become the authors of their own lives. YLLP (Youth Life Leadership Program) is a global action learning ecosystem where students engage in international collaboration, real-world problem solving, reflective practice, and mentorship across cultures and communities. Through meaningful challenges and human-centered learning experiences, youth develop agency, global citizenship, leadership, and the capacity to create sustainable change in the world around them.
