International Youth Volunteerism Summit

The International Youth Volunteer : Social Entrepreneurship in Youth Volunteerism is looking for passionate 18-25 year old students and volunteers from around the world. The inaugural IYVSummit is a weekend designed to celebrate the impulses behind youth volunteerism around the world while at the same time creating a social and intellectual space for serious critical discussion of the limits and pitfalls of those impulses. Through keynote speakers, panel discussions, and project focused workshops, we hope to give delegates a chance to build the knowledge, skills, and contacts to be more productively engaged across borders.
