Empowering African and European youths to co-create innovative solutions for global challenges
Our focus is on African and European Youth
Young people lead meaningful societal change, driving both socio-political and technological advancements.
They are not just tomorrow’s leaders but the driving force behind resilient, sustainable communities today.
That is why, in the YouthTeamUp project individuals from both continents learn together, co-create project ideas and work virtually together targeting global impact across all SDGs.
Transcontinental and Transdisciplinary Partnerships
The YTU project partners are strategically composed by academic institutions and practice partners from business and technology. We jointly address various aspects of transforming challenges into sustainable businesses to the young participants from various educational backgrounds. Through professional learning content, individual team mentorship, practical hands-on experience, and self-development opportunities we enable a wide variety of ideas and approaches to problem solving.
Global Impact Projects (GIPs)
The participants of YTU create their GIPs in collaborative international teams. The innovative ideas clearly address the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and will be implemented by software and hardware solutions utilizing IoT & AI technology under the guidance of professional mentors with expertise in technical innovations as well as entrepreneurship.
