Youth Development
Berkeley-AMENA’s Youth Development Program empowers K-12 students with 21st-century skills
Learning by Doing
In an environment in which talent has become the primary competitive factor, the key to building and sustaining innovation economies is the improvement and development of the creative, cognitive, critical thinking, problem solving, collaborative, as well as the intra- and entrepreneurial skills of the AMENA region’s current and future workforce.
The Berkeley-AMENA Youth Development Program’s goal is to empower K-12 students with 21st-century skills. The program includes a set of extracurricular workshops and internships covering a range of soft and technical skills in a learning by doing environment that develops motivation and creativity and instills a growth mindset.
