Our world's future is in the hands of the next generation. They face enormous problems that can only be solved through effective, global, human collaboration and innovation. Problems such as global warming, war, natural disasters, disease, poverty, and famine are not isolated to any one country or region.And these problems cannot be solved by those who created them, paraphrasing Albert Einstein, unless there is a change of consciousness, followed by action now, instead of waiting for our youth to grow up and deal with them.

Project management practitioners and chapters are uniquely experienced to help mentor the next generation, to equip them with the skills and tools to effectively collaborate and achieve project success. Teachers and most parents do not have experience or education in fundamental project management concepts and best practices. Yet many schools begin introducing projects as early as kindergarden, and many now require a capstone project to graduate from high school.
