Hey guys! YouthJamz is currently on hiatus but check out my current project at UCLA, the Global Development Lab! http://thedevlab.org/

The Global Development Lab at UCLA endeavors to provide a results-driven space for students to research, incubate, and implement innovative ideas critical to the alleviation of poverty at home and abroad. Through professionally-led workshops, research projects, and development model experimentation, GDL equips students with the tangible skills and resources necessary to successfully foster responsible global development initiatives.

Global Development Lab at UCLA Cultivating Passion. Igniting Innovation. Making Change.
