As the global forum for young leaders, One Young World Delegates attending the annual Summit hail from +190 countries across the globe, representing every sector.
Workshops are a crucial part of the One Young World Summit, providing Delegates with practical insights into the issues and topics they are most passionate about. All workshops hosted during the Summit will deliver immediately applicable skills, techniques, ideas and/or processes which Delegates can implement in their projects and initiatives. Workshops that have previously received highest praise from Delegates were interactive and/or scenario based. This includes the use of scenario based challenges, problem solving, challenge/goal setting, as well as shared Delegate experiences.
