Y-PLAN (Youth-Plan, Learn, Act, Now!)是一个旨在鼓励城市年轻人参与城市规划和政策制定的教育性项目。这个项目旨在帮助年轻人在创造一个健康、可持续和愉悦的社区的同时，获得进入大学、职场以及成为社会公民所需要的知识和技能。
到目前为止，已经有来自全美及世界各地成千上万的年轻人和几十所学校、教师以及各合作方参与了Y-PLAN项目。这项社区发展项目已经在全球超过20个城市开展。在过去的15年中，在参与项目的年轻人及项目导师等各方的努力下，已经创建了超过50个Y-PLAN 社会企业项目。
作为该项目的发起人，本次讲座Deborah McKoy博士将主要通过案例分享的方式，讲述全球范围内的Y-PLAN计划是如何吸引年轻人参与社会行动的。
