We are a youth-led program equipping the next generation of city builders and changemakers.

1UP Youth City Builders runs year-round for high school students throughout the GTA, Hamilton and Kitchener-Waterloo. 1UP Youth City Builders is a youth leadership program run by Urban Minds, a non-profit organization based in Toronto with a mission to create meaningful ways for youth to shape equitable and sustainable cities.

We support Chapters led by high school students. These 1UP Fellows support youth-led projects to improve their communities.
