10 years, 10 curators
A decade of youth leadership and impact in our region. Learn about our history through the voices of those who have led us.
Since 2015, Global Shapers Bilbao has been a meeting point for young people committed to the future of our community. We are part of the international Global Shapers Community network, an initiative of the World Economic Forum (WEF). We have grown as a hub that firmly believes in the philosophy of ‘Think globally, act locally’.
More than 70 young people have passed through our community, contributing their energy and talent to generate positive and lasting change. Today, with more than 25 active members, we look back with pride and forward with renewed ambition.
The 10th Anniversary is more than a celebration; it is a weekend of reflection, connection and shared future, bringing together Shapers from around the world, alumni, institutions and young people from the region. Harreman is the philosophy that defines us: give and take.
