About MTV Agents of Change (Agentes de Cambio)
Agents of Change is a youth-driven pro-social initiative that empowers young people to put ideas into action to make a positive difference in their communities. Launched by MTV in 2006 in collaboration with the Inter-American Development Bank’s (IDB) Youth Program. Through strategic Alliances, this award winning initiative gives young people an open forum to tell their stories of how they are making a difference and promotes young people’s involvement on various development issues that affect them such as: Education, Employment, Environment, Health, Violence prevention, and Youth participation. The program now reaches 54 million households in 23 countries.

About Ashoka’s Youth Venture
Ashoka’s Youth Venture aims to help an entire generation of young people develop as leaders who will improve their communities now and throughout their lives. Youth Venture inspires and supports teams of young people to launch and lead their own civic-minded organisations and businesses. Youth teams access workshops, tools, adult allies, a global network of like-minded young changemakers, and seed funding to establish their own ventures that solve problems around them. We believe that the greatest contribution we can make to the world is to increase dramatically the number of changemakers today and in every future generation. This is the key factor for success for every part of society, from a school to a company to an entire country. Youth Venture operates in 17 countries and online at www.GenV.net and at www.ashoka.org.
