At I Am We Are, we envision a world where all young people are socially engaged, globally aware, and economically free. IAWA strives to empower youth with the tools they need to confidently own their futures. Since 2015, our mission has been to empower youth with the mindset, skills, and resources they need to realize their full potential. Through tailored programs in South Africa and the United States, we help young people build confidence, develop leadership, and boldly own their future — in their communities and beyond.
An adaptive, character-building model that enables youth to be instruments and agents to their own development.
