TRUST: What it means,

Who we trust, How we build it

Do We Trust Each Other?
Our schools? Public officials? The State of Global Youth Report 2025 explores trust as a core value and daily practice—examining how young people experience it today and offering strategies to strengthen our social and political fabric for the future.

Why This Work Matters
One of the most urgent challenges we face is repairing and strengthening the bonds that hold us together. From public institutions to our ability to engage in honest, productive conversations, trust is eroding across society. The State of Global Youth Report 2025 puts young people in the driver’s seat to examine this challenge and imagine pathways forward.

Youth, as well as adult and organizational allies, are invited to share their perspectives through the survey link above.
