About the Organization

Youth Time International Movement (YTIM) is an internationally oriented non-profit, non-political organization which actively represents a platform of dialogue between cultures and generations. We inspire and engage young people from all over the world, by encouraging them to develop their social leadership skills as well as to take upon their civil responsibility. Youth Time International Movement provides opportunities to take part in various projects, to help youth acquire new knowledge and skills in social and public sphere as well as to built up relations with other young social leaders.

About the Event

Youth Time International Movement’s (YTIM) mission is to give a chance to youth of all nationalities, creeds and genders who wish to make a positive impact both in their society and globally. We achieve this through creating a space for youth from around the world to meet each other, encouraging them to participate in educational & cultural programs and enrich each other with their thoughts and experiences.

Since 2015 the Youth Global Forum has been an annual event that has served as a platform to promote youth interests, intergenerational and intercultural education and opportunity. Each year the Youth Global Forum travels to a new destination, with previous versions of the event being held in Amsterdam, Barcelona, Jakarta, Dubai and Paris with previous themes such as ‘Worldwide Impact Investment: The Role of Entrepreneurs’ and ‘Industry 5.0 vs Inclusive Development: Where is the Future?’.

The Youth Global Forum also hosts the annual Idea Grant Competition where ten selected projects are given the opportunity to present their ideas in front of those in attendance and a jury panel consisting of members with expertise in entrepreneurship, business, academics, and social Impact. These projects compete for prizes including funded scholarships for higher and continued education, and the grand prize of receiving the ‘Youth Time Idea Grant’ that provides the funding necessary to turn at least one project into reality.

We are rapidly moving towards a future where knowledge and specific skills will probably be the dominant factor in sustaining the global economy rather than natural resources. Worldwide digitalization, AI, and technology are, day by day, moving towards dominating the workplace. The young professionals of today should be constantly alert to acquiring the skills that will be essential to remaining competitive in a labour market that will develop and evolve in a framework of fast-changing economics while being mindful that equal access to this educational development is essential to reducing inequalities as opposed to increasing them whereby only the developed communities and societies will have access and be fully prepared for the future.

This year, Youth Time International Movement is focusing on future skills for a sustainable workplace. Over the course of the Youth Global Forum 2021 we will discuss the theme of “Education based on the Digital Revolution: Building Capacity for Youth Transformation”. We will explore the importance of education at different ages and career phases as well as the roster of the essential new skills that will relate to the transitional period.
