Thus, the following is a list of opportunities where students can go to search for funding, enrich their summers or find work after graduation.

The 19th International Youth Leadership Conference

The 19th International Youth Leadership Conference is a week-long youth forum on world politics, international relations and justice.

In January we will be welcoming 100 students from 40 different countries for an open-minded exchange of diverse perspectives on contemporary global challenges.
