Global Platforms (GP) is ActionAid's network for youth-led activism. We provide innovative training and capacity development for young people to lead social, political and economic change around the world. GPs support civil society and social movements through the development of tailor-made training. We see a world full of young people who are drivers of social change.

We started our journey in Bangladesh from 2015. Global Platform Bangladesh offers contextualised training within a wide range of topics, varying from creative activism and youth leadership to democratic governance, young women rights, youth lead social research and global citizenship. We believe that young people hold tremendous potential to challenge the political status quo and play a key role in the fight for a more just and equal world. Our vision is to be a catalyst for youth-led social, political and economic change. We want to empower young people by providing the right tools and space to learn, act and share.
