We conduct research and provide thought leadership to facilitate collaboration and build a global culture of philanthropy. We convene working groups on critical social issues and collaborate with the UN and heads of state on launching new initiatives that serve humanity. NEXUS puts the hope and promise of young people on the world stage by bringing together leaders at regional NEXUS events for inspiration, education, dialogue, and collaborative problem-solving. We have hosted over 40 Summits across six continents to connect young people from diverse backgrounds and link communities that would otherwise never meet. We have membership from over 70+ countries and have hosted summits at The United Nations, The White House, No. 10 Downing Street and with the First Lady of Australia. We envision a global community that promotes a just and sustainable world that celebrates diversity and governs by the paradigm that “we are all in this together.”
