Youth Council

According to 80000hours.org, Every year governments, foundations and individuals spend over $500 billion on efforts to improve the world as a whole. $500 billion is a lot of money, but it’s not enough to solve all the world’s problems. This means that organizations and individuals have to prioritize and pick which global problems they work on. For example, if a foundation wants to improve others’ lives as much as possible, should it focus on immigration policy, international development, scientific research or something else?

While you think about it, let us give you more on from the research. Yes, $500 billion spent each year, but only a miniscule fraction (less than 0.01%) is spent on global priorities research: efforts to work out which global problems are the most pressing to work on.

With a track record of already influencing hundreds of millions of dollars, future research into global priorities could lead to billions of dollars being spent many times more effectively. As a result, we believe this is one of the highest impact fields you can work in.

We at Sema, envision a youth generation who are proactively engaging with today’s world as a contributor rather than a complainer; motivated to learn more about the roots of the problems rather than political perspectives and; are seeking self-development opportunities to diverse their perspective, to gain empathy and to build set of practices to reach out to people in need at any part of the world. We believe in youth is the solution to some issues and we want to empower them by enlightening their path on their journey to their dreams, educating their parents and giving them voice to rise up to the challenge to tackle some of the problems
