Indigo Youth Leadership Community

Indigo connects communities and empowers youth to achieve their personal and professional goals. It builds “tribes” where high school students develop their leadership skills and acquire XXI century skills. These tribes receive mentoring and are given the space to engage with other tribes. We call this process the Indigo Methodology. This developmental experience connects young professionals and students through leadership development activities and mentoring. Students also engage with peers from different sectors of their community. Thus, providing them with a broader understanding of local development. The Indigo Methodology draws from social capital theory and the World Economic Forum 2012 Report on New Models of Leadership. It is designed to strengthen the bonds between students and their peers, as well as youth from diverse socioeconomic backgrounds. It also develops social, emotional and intellectual leadership capacities in youth, thus preparing the next generation of responsible leaders. Indigo supports youth in understanding the United Nations Global Goals, and the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. We encourage and mentor young people to design and execute group projects aligned with the goals. Create a Global Community of young people that transform their world from a core of purpose and positive values.
