The work

Iyai+’s Unique Cross-Sectoral Approach is By Design

Greater Complexity, Collaboration, and Partnerships!

Today’s profoundly changing, and increasingly interdependent world requires rethinking the “career-readiness”, education, skills, lived and learned experiences and exposures necessary for sustainability, resilience, and global competitiveness in the 21st century.

There are 16 critical infrastructure sectors in the U.S. iyai+ national programming starts with a spotlight on the four (4) “lifeline” sectors – transportation, water, energy, communications – and other closely aligned sectors such as critical manufacturing, and information technology – which have a major impact on the methods, means, and technological deployment across the sectors.

Our work is anchored by core values – safe, secure, smart, sustainable and resilient “best-in-class” 21st century infrastructure which affords access to opportunity and shared prosperity for all people and communities. 

We also hold a deep commitment to the value and importance of meaningful, inclusive civic engagement which encourages “youth voice” and input from marginalized groups and communities in community decision-making.
