Hello Future is a Nonprofit Working at the Nexus of Positive Youth Development and the Future of Work.
Founded in 2016 in response to the Syrian refugee crisis, we provided refugee teens with a locally-led afterschool program in a refugee camp in Iraqi Kurdistan. Our program delivered an innovative curriculum focused on essential 21st-century skills to help vulnerable youth prepare for the rapidly advancing technological future.
In 2023-24, we began the next phase of our work — building organizational capacities across varied community-based organizations by providing access to our youth development curriculum, training of trainers, and measurement and evaluation. We are now working globally — in the U.S., Jordan, and Iraqi Kurdistan, and soon in East Africa and Colombia. It will take all of us to prevent a lost generation.
