This event has been and gone.
CIVICUS Youth Assembly 2008, 16-18th June, Glasgow
“People, Participation and Power...”
Building on the success of last year's CIVICUS Youth Assembly the 2008 event will offer an exceptional opportunity to meet and work with other young women and men who are really making changes to things that matter.
The Youth Assembly will offer young delegates a program and a space to develop and commit to action internationally. The theme of participation in civil society will be explored over the course of the event and delegates will learn about issues that effect billions of people worldwide. The programme will develop not only delegates knowledge, but also build personal capacity through a series of workshops and skills development sessions. Participation is key and all delegates will be fully engaged in a programme of full participation.
In attending the Youth Assembly delegates will also go on to participate, as full delegates, in the CIVICUS World Assembly where they will have a voice and opportunity to meet and influence some of the world's leading NGOs, groups and individuals who are committed to the creation of a more just and equitable world.
Delegate places are available to successful applicants aged 18 to 25 years old. The application deadline for the CIVICUS Youth Assembly is 31st March
All delegate places are 100% free of charge and we will include all your accommodation, food and social programme events for the week. We will also include your Delegate Fees to attend the CIVICUS World Assembly.
