The World Economic Forum's Global Shapers are organized in a network of local hubs based in each major city around the world.

The Port Louis Hub is the official Hub for Mauritius. It undertakes activities that positively impact the Mauritian community. The World Economic Forum has successfully established a history of engaging young leaders to positively and proactively impact the global agenda. In addition to its existing community of Young Global Leaders, who are in their mid to late 30s, the Forum is establishing a special community of young people in their 20s. This new community – the Global Shapers Community – will provide youth with a global platform to shape the future – integrating the personal, community and global dimension. Through the unparalleled convening power of the World Economic Forum, the Global Shapers Community is diverse in demographics, geographical areas and sectors. It includes young people from all walks of life who have demonstrated great potential for future leadership. However, it is united by a common desire to channel the members’ tremendous energy and enthusiasm into building a more peaceful and inclusive world.

Today, the Port Louis Regional Youth Council and the Global Shapers - Port Louis Hub came together to donate 148 school packs to children from Résidence La Cure, Ti Rodrig (Paul et Viginie) and Roche Bois, while also extending support to families and children in Petite Rivière, Camp Le Vieux, Pointe aux Sables, Cotteau Raffin, Mont Roches and Barkly.

A sincere thank you to the Roche Bois Old Boys Scouts and Nemamiah for facilitating the distribution of the school packs at Roches Bois and Gros Cailloux respectively.

Beyond the numbers, today was about showing up for our communities and reminding our children that they are seen, supported and believed in.

To everyone who donated, shared, volunteered or simply believed in this initiative, every little bit counted. Whether it was one notebook or a full school pack, each contribution helped make a child's school journey a little lighter.

A special thank you to Olive Resistance, Nouredine pour les Orphelins, and the RCPL Alumni Association for their unwavering support in this initiative.

Out of respect and compassion, beneficiaries’ identities are not shared.

Reflecting on our last event of 2025, the festive season reminded us what community truly means.

The Global Shapers Port Louis Hub, together with our partners Nemamiah and FoodWise, came together at Intermart Chebel with one simple but powerful goal : to support families in need through a collective act of generosity.

Throughout the day, we witnessed kindness in its purest form from donors who gave thoughtfully, to volunteers who offered their time, energy and smiles, and to everyone who stopped by to contribute in any way they could.

Throughout the day, we saw generosity in action. From donors who gave with care to volunteers who showed up with time, energy and kindness, every contribution mattered 💛

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who supported this initiative. Your solidarity truly makes a difference and reminds us that even small acts of kindness can create meaningful impact 🌍✨

As we step into 2026, thousands of children from needy families in deprived areas are preparing for a new academic year; full of dreams, potential, and hope. Unfortunately, for many, access to basic school materials remains a major challenge.

This New Year, let’s share positivity, kindness, and smiles by coming together to support children who need us the most 📚🖊️

Your contribution will help us purchase essential items such as notebooks, stationeries, and learning materials; empowering children to start the academic year with confidence and dignity.

Every donation matters. Every gesture counts.💙

Together, we can turn generosity into opportunity and ensure that no child is left behind.

This initiative is proudly led by the Port Louis Regional Youth Council in collaboration with the Global Shapers Port Louis Hub, driven by a shared commitment to youth empowerment, education, and social impact. 🤝

📌 Let’s make 2026 a year of impact.
📌 Let’s invest in education.
📌 Let’s put a smile on a child’s face.

👉 Support our school materials donation drive and be part of this meaningful journey.

Last Sunday, 15 of us Shapers, friends and environment lovers spent the morning at La Cambuse with one simple goal : leave the beach cleaner than we found it. Plastic bottles, cigarette butts, containers - the list didn’t end, but neither did our motivation. Because environmental care isn’t a hashtag, it’s a habit. 🌍💙

La Cambuse is one of the few wild beaches left in Mauritius. Protecting it is not just about picking up waste; it’s about reminding ourselves that nature doesn’t need saving once it needs saving every time people forget to care. Small team. Real change. Next clean-up, we want more hands, more heart, more impact.

Protect what you love! 🌊
