Hesed World launched in November 2025 after an important year devoted to listening, research, and strategic planning. We sought out the insights of young people in developing nations, practitioners on the ground, and government leaders and advisors from around the world. Then we capped it all off with a celebration and discussion in Geneva with our newfound network of partners, experts and friends.
Hesed World is now building pathways to development for many young people challenged by lack of opportunity and employment in their home countries. We've begun in Africa with a focus on initiatives that cultivate leadership, livelihoods and sustainable development.
Discover key insights from the Hesed World Mentorship Survey Report and learn how mentorship is shaping job and leadership opportunities for young people.
Hesed World has established the Youth Community: a digital space designed to connect young people across borders with professionals, mentors, and one another in meaningful, ongoing dialogue.
