YOUth, the International Youth Foundation’s flagship magazine, offers interviews, personal stories, and essays focused on youth development around the world.

Published by IYF annually, the magazine seeks to celebrate the power and promise of young people to change the world, while incorporating the varied voices and perspectives from those in the public, private, and non-profit sectors. The wide range of stories and reports also gives IYF an opportunity to demonstrate how our work fits into broader efforts to address some of the most pressing global issues facing young people today – including HIV/AIDS, social apathy, and lack of educational opportunities.
