Starting a Chapter

For students ready to take the next step, GYEA offers the opportunity to start a chapter at their own school or in their community.

Chapters are student-led groups that operate under the GYEA mission but adapt to the needs of their local area. Each chapter has the freedom to host meetings, tutoring programs, fundraisers, and cultural exchange projects, while also staying connected to the larger global alliance.

Starting a chapter is a way to build a lasting hub of youth leadership — one that brings together students, teachers, and community partners around a shared commitment to education equity. We provide the framework and guidance, while chapter leaders bring the vision to life in their own schools and cities.
