The Young Person’s Guide To Systems Change

Published 2025 – The Young Person’s Guide To Systems Change from The 50 Percent (a platform for young leaders supported by The Club of Rome), is designed as a collaborative space that empowers young people to develop a deep understanding of systems thinking and apply it to transform the world around them. It challenges the misconception that systems thinking is too complex for young people, recognising their ability to navigate interconnected challenges. 

This guide is the result of seven online sessions, where young leaders co-created a shared toolbox filled with knowledge and strategies for driving systemic change. 

Blending humour, anecdotes and practical insights, this handbook introduces key concepts of systems thinking and systems transformation, making complex ideas accessible and engaging.
