About WorldBeing.
For millions of young people around the world, aspiring to leave behind poverty, discrimination and inequality, the skills of mental health and wellbeing are critical to positively transform their life trajectories.
At WorldBeing, we believe that youth wellbeing is key to global wellbeing.
Investing in youth wellbeing supports a girl in completing her education. It can strengthen a young man’s resolve to advocate for gender equality. And it will help the next generation forge a path forward for their communities, in the face of the climate crisis.
At WorldBeing, our goal is to empower marginalized and vulnerable youth, particularly girls and young women in low- and middle-income countries, with the skills of mental health and wellbeing. By working with the youth of today, we sow the seeds of a better world for the generations of tomorrow.

Why We Focus on Youth Wellbeing.
Research has shown that successful cultivation of youth mental health and wellbeing is the product of skills such as self-discovery, agency, and resilience—and that these skills can be learned and harnessed to unlock the aspirations of young people so they can change their circumstances and thrive.
Our evidence-based wellbeing programs provide marginalized, economically disadvantaged, and underserved youth the skills that support them to flourish, despite the significant societal and socioeconomic challenges they face.

The WorldBeing Approach.
We combine grounded knowledge with scientific research—integrating local voices with contextual, personal, lived experience, and rigorous methods for testing, adaptation and evaluation.
We strive for culturally-appropriate, scalable solutions that can be adopted and sustained within existing local systems. To this end, we partner closely with government education departments to embed wellbeing into policy, teacher training institutions, curriculum frameworks, and budgets—ensuring that youth wellbeing becomes a guaranteed component of education.
To achieve this, WorldBeing employs a blended financial model that leverages strategic partnerships with global and local philanthropies and governments. This approach ensures long-term sustainability and financial viability as programmatic and funding responsibility progressively transitions over time to national and state government education systems.
