GenerationPulse seeks three major goals:
- To create youth community that transcends geographical, ethnic,
racial, and other differences that often divide people.
- To bring together youth creativity and energy, along with the power
of the internet, to encourage, uplift, and support young people in
need.
- And ultimately, to foster a social justice-oriented, global youth
movement through the world wide web.
GenerationPulse is a national network of young people who seek to
better themselves and others by sharing art, photography, writing,
and music. By providing a safe online community, GenerationPulse invites
young people to exchange experiences that shape their lives, and to
reach out to displaced and disenfranchised youth. Once given a voice
in a community of peers, and once given the chance to interact with
other young people from different backgrounds and social circumstances,
these youths are inspired and empowered to become catalysts for social
justice. GenerationPulse aims to launch a new generation of socially-conscious
youth into the future by harnessing their creativity and energy, along
with the power of the world wide web.
GenerationPulse is a wide open window through which people from many
different approaches, beliefs, and backgrounds may come through. Yet
most who come through may end up sharing a mutual vision of a world
with fewer barriers between people from all walks of life.
Working through the power of relationships, GenerationPulse brings
together young people from around the country, and potentially the world,
to engage in critical reflection and dialogue, mutual support and education,
network-building, and ultimately group action to confront social injustices
on local, regional, and national levels.
