WHO ARE GENERATION Z?
- Generation Z are those people born from 1995 to the end of 2009.
- They are the next generation after Generation Y (today’s teenage and twentysomethings).
- They are largely the children of Generation X.
- They are in their childhood although at the oldest edge they are approaching their teenage years.
- They are today’s children and students, and tomorrow’s employees and leaders.
- They are the world’s first 21st Century generation - the digital natives, the
dot com kids, Generation Media.- They are today’s emerging generation who resemble children of any era
past, yet they personify our future.
The age of iPod, MP3s, Web 2.0, social networking and citizen journalism coincide with the rise of Generation Z. According to GenerationZ.com.au, these are people born from 1995 to the end of 2009. However, an entry from Wikipedia.org states that "the term has been used to refer to today's newborns, but is used more often to refer to people born after the year 2008."
Only one thing is certain regardless of what is defined about this population, Generation Z is humanity's salvation--and the leaders of today will make or break the ability of this generation to further human existence (or the life we have become accustomed to).
