GLOCAL is a national not-for-profit organization that promotes digital civic engagement through local participation and global understanding in Canada.
At GLOCAL, we redefine civic engagement by empowering Canadian youth as active contributors rather than passive recipients. Through online volunteering, mentorship, micro-grants, and work opportunities, we create a talent incubator where youth take on roles like construction workers, engineers, designers, researchers, and couriers in the last-mile delivery of civic information. This approach not only facilitates knowledge mobilization but also fosters ownership, leadership, and social entrepreneurship among our youth.

Our digital initiatives and community outreach strive to improve the infrastructure and accessibility of public information in an effort to combat misinformation, information overload, and low-information rationality in the digital age.
Our digital civic engagement initiatives are driven by young Canadians nationwide and globally. By gaining direct experience, they deepen their understanding of societal challenges and drive meaningful change in their communities. With the tools and resources we provide, we aim to incubate a generation of informed, engaged, and empowered citizens capable of addressing the complexities of our time.

Formed by a group of young Canadians concerned about the evolving challenges facing democracy, GLOCAL emerged from a collective recognition that traditional civic engagement methods are becoming insufficient. Despite our diverse backgrounds, we share a common commitment to addressing these challenges through digital civic engagement and democratic literacy.
Through our web portal and various initiatives, we aim to promote digital citizenship, encourage youth engagement, enhance information accessibility, and mobilize civic knowledge across Canada. Our goal is to empower all Canadians to actively participate in shaping the future of our democracy, adapting to the changing landscape of civic engagement in the digital age.
