The Global Youth New Zealand Charitable Trust (GYNZ) is an international non-profit organisation established in New Zealand in 2023. It was founded by individuals passionate about public welfare, sports, and cultural initiatives. The Trust is dedicated to creating innovative public sports platforms for youth worldwide, promoting diverse sports and cultural activities, and inspiring young people to realise their athletic potential.
Sports and education
Sports and education can make a significant contribution to youth growth and development physically, personally and professionally. We collaborate with regional and international partners to provide sports-related training, education and exchange programmes and platforms, including cricket, equestrian, golf and rugby, to support young people’s health, wellbeing, leadership and teamwork skills.
Arts & Culture
Youth development is deeply interconnected with arts and culture, which help young people build creativity, positivity, self-confidence and empathy. We promote exchange and cooperation through artistic, cultural and linguistic initiatives to strengthen young people's understanding, inclusion and appreciation of diverse cultures, traditions and communities.
Heritage & Nature Conservancy
Heritage and nature are foundations for sustainable human development and a liveable planet. Appreciation of, and responsibility for, heritage and the natural environment starts with younger generations. Through our initiatives, programmes and platforms, we connect young people with the environment and community to build social and environmental responsibility as global citizens.
