YOUTH: TOMORROW’S
LEADERS TODAY
ECI believes that children and young people
who are empowered with the knowledge of
the interconnectedness of all living things as
well as their own ability to think and act in
harmony, will grow up leading lives that
benefit themselves and the environment. It’s
a win-win situation for human beings and
the planet Earth.
Children and young people are often
regarded as the leaders of tomorrow, but
they are the leaders of today. If given a
voice and the opportunity to take action the
impacts can be profound.
ECI core strategies include: International
Policy and Advocacy - Education for
Sustainable Development - Seeding and
Nurturing Youth-led Networks.
