The Youth of Today is a two-year partnership of seven leading youth organisations developing leadership opportunities for  13-19 year olds – from shadowing senior politicians to  training as young journalists.  Young people lead the programme, making decisions about grants and  shaping the research.  The Youth of Today £1 million fund has reached over 1,500 young people, through investment in 37 youth sector organisations. In addition, 36 grants were made directly to young leaders through the I Do Ideas web portal developed by the Young Foundation.  A series of research reports are showing what works in youth leadership,  covering topics ranging from the use of social network technologies to employment creation.
