emboldening the youth to push for sustainable, empowering, and impactful change.

OUR MISSION

Youth for Ethical Sourcing (YES) is a youth-led, youth-run organization that aims to address ethical sourcing from an environmental, economic, and humanitarian standpoint. By actively educating the youth and equipping them with necessary research and advocacy skills, YES is working for youth mobilization and activism in ethical sourcing. Whether by conducting interviews with industry professionals, fundraising for community empowerment, or writing informative papers on ethical sourcing as it relates to human rights, child labor, biodiversity, climate change, and supply chain management, YES is working to hold brands accountable for their sourcing practices and make the world a more sustainable, equitable place.
