The Global Teen Leaders Program 2019 is open for applications. Three Dot Dash is looking for the next Global Teen Leaders (GTLs) – those who have identified a problem and a solution, and have taken direct action. Three dot dash powers the most influential social entrepreneurs between the ages of 13 -19, who have found a solution or innovation to address a basic human need. Selected GTLs will attend the 10th Annual 2019 Just Peace Summit Will Take Place On… March 5-18, 2019 In New York City.
Global Teen Leaders are people who are doing extraordinary work that helps meet one or more of the basic human needs: food, water, health, shelter, education, safety and the environment — thus, creating a more peaceful society. They are carefully selected through a Nomination Process and invited to attend the Just Peace Summit and participate in the yearlong Three Dot Dash Initiative.
Three Dot Dash® is a global initiative of the We Are Family Foundation® designed to recognize and support the efforts of Global Teen Leaders around the world who are actively working on projects that promote a more peaceful society. Inspired by the late 13-year-old poet and peacemaker Mattie J.T. Stepanek, Three Dot Dash is an innovative year-round leadership and mentoring program that teaches teen leaders how to “tell their stories” effectively using various forms of media in order to accelerate their leadership potential, advance their projects, mobilize peers and amplify their work to broader audiences around the world to take action.
