Youth For Change Conference 2019: Social Innovators' Edition!

Stay up to date with the latest details on the conference programme and our guest speakers at www.worldvision.org.sg/yfcc!

Join an international community of cause-driven young minds in Cebu City, the Philippines this December. Discover what it takes to collaborate across different fields and sectors to create innovative solutions that can mitigate and eliminate the most difficult struggles faced by vulnerable communities in your society and around the world.

World Vision is calling all youth who desire to be change agents in making poverty history!

We work with schools, organisations and youth to raise global leaders who are aware of issues related to poverty and humanitarianism worldwide, and want to be empowered to make a difference in the world. If you believe that your generation can bring about change, we invite you to join us in our fight against poverty and injustice. For a start, you can read some of our youth blog posts here!

For more information on any of our activities or events, please email youth@worldvision.org.sg.


  • Project HungerFree
    At our youth festival with a difference, we went behind the scenes of relief and development work, through the first-hand accounts of frontline field workers who shared what it really takes to achieve radical improvements in the lives of the poor. Through experiential learning activities, participants were also introduced to lessons about economic vulnerability, sustainable development, and global inequality.



  • For more than 30 years in Singapore,
    youth aged 14 to 18 go without food for 30 hours, as a mark of solidarity against global issues of poverty, hunger and injustice. During the 30 Hour Famine Camp, which draws an average of 1,000 youth yearly, real life simulation activities shed light on global food security issues, and help develop critical thinking and global citizenry. The camp aims to educate and empower the future generation to take action for children in need worldwide.



  • If you desire to meet in a collaborative space to exchange ideas and organise events to advocate for the needy, join the Global Youth Network. You will also be trained to hone your advocacy skills and leadership potential. Click here to find out more.



  • A coin bank that symbolises life-giving bread for those in need; it can be filled with loose change as a class or with a group of friends, and returned to World Vision when it is full.



  • Students who find it hard to afford $45 a month to sponsor a child can now combine resources with friends! The World Buddies Programme is an affordable micro child sponsorship programme specially for students in Secondary and Tertiary institutions. It allows youth to crowdfund and sponsor needy children as a class/group. Children from poor communities will now have big brothers and sisters to write to them and keep abreast of the exciting transformation taking place in their communities.



  • Our interns gain significant humanitarian knowledge and professional development opportunities, and a chance to effect change in needy communities worldwide through their leadership, advocacy, writing and speaking skills. We welcome those with a passion for underserved children, a flair for speaking/singing/event management and marketing – basically those ready to help impoverished children around the world.
