2024 was a remarkable year for QS ImpACT, filled with impactful, youth-led sustainable initiatives and inspiring stories of change in communities around the world. As we reflect on this success, we are more motivated than ever to align our efforts with our long-term goals and aspirations. During a meaningful gathering of our trustees and team in London, we evaluated our journey, celebrated our achievements, and charted a course for the future.

This reflection has inspired us to refine our purpose and strengthen our commitment to empowering young leaders and driving sustainable development around the world. Today, we are proud to unveil our updated Vision and Mission statements, which encapsulate our dedication to shaping the sustainability leaders of tomorrow.

Our Vision

“The global SDG incubator for a better world.”

This vision reflects our ambition to be an incubator where young leaders globally are empowered to create lasting impact and innovative solutions toward advancing the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

Our Mission

“We equip young leaders with the skills to drive impactful actions through strategic collaborations with universities, organisations, and communities.”

This mission underscores our dedication to providing transformative opportunities for young leaders through programs and initiatives such as the QS ImpACT Skills Challenge, QS ImpACT Awards, Scholarships, and more. By facilitating meaningful partnerships and nurturing essential skills in young people, we aim to enable them to create and scale innovative solutions for the most pressing sustainability challenges in their local communities.

Our refined direction is not just a statement, it’s a call to action. Through collaboration with educational institutions, corporate partners, and local communities, QS ImpACT’s goal is to amplify the voices and impact of youth worldwide. 

For students and young professionals, it is an invitation to join a global movement that equips them to make meaningful contributions and create sustainable solutions while building skills that will help them nurture successful careers in the future. Join the QS ImpACT Community to explore a world of global programmes and exciting opportunities!

We’re excited to embark on this next chapter of our journey and remain committed to creating opportunities that bring us closer to a more sustainable future.
