Youth Research Vox
An Innovative Platform for Thinkers and Doers
Our Mission
YRV's mission is to create an innovative space where young people are empowered to explore who they are, understand the world around them, and shape the life and future they envision.
YRV works with young people between the ages of 15 and 25 from anywhere in the world. Since its inception in 2020, youth from more than 40 countries have joined the platform. Once trained as youth researchers, they study economic, social, and environmental issues and seek solutions that will help them lead communities to a brighter future.
At Youth Research Vox, no dream is too big, no action is impossible. While the youth are only twenty percent of the world's population, we are one hundred percent of the world's future.
Our Story
Youth Research Vox was founded in 2020. When the unprecedented pandemic shattered the world, when communities scrambled to survive, a small group of young people in America rose up to the challenge. Four high school students with the support of an educator started YRV with nothing but a dream. Today, YRV has grown into a global platform featuring a peer-reviewed research journal, a thought-partner podcast, and a range of programs offering scholarships and internships.
Our Pathway
The YRV 3-Step Pathway to Success consists of Research, Action, and Social Entrepreneurship. Young people start their journey on the YRV platform by conducting scientific research to understand the issues that they aim to solve. Once a strong footing in facts and real-world data is established, the YRV youth take action at the community level making social impact toward systemic change. Successful action leaders then start individual social enterprises to lead their communities forward.
