The 6th Annual Youth Assembly at the United Nations

The founding vision and principles of the International Youth Council were formed at the 4rd Annual Youth Assembly at the United Nations. Twelve youth leaders from around the world met and discussed their ideas for an organization that could speak up for youth values and perspectives at the United Nations, and also work to empower other youths to help the world achieve the Millennium Development Goals.

Two years later we have members across the globe, we have aided key development projects in almost every global region, and most importantly - we have saved both lives and livelihoods.

This year - This August 5th to 7th - The IYC's leadership will be attending the 6th Annual Youth Assembly at the United Nations again for another round of inspirational programming, networking, and planning for the future.

We hope to work with the Friendship Ambassadors Foundation (www.faf.org) to build upon our experiences of the past, and to empower the young leaders present to both build lasting relationships, to learn new skills, and to achieve real sustainable international development.

We do hope that you will apply and that we will see you there.

Also, the IYC's leadership will be meeting in New York over the next 3 weeks to plan our workshop at the Assembly "The Youth Assembly and You", and also several future projects and partnerships. For more information, please contact me at Jamie.Ansorge@Gmail.com.
