I'm excited to be volunteering at the AFS Youth Assembly this year! The AFS Youth Assembly empowers the next generation of international leaders with opportunities to connect in person with peers from over 100 countries, develop critical skills, and transform their vision for a better future through innovative action. It does this through a weekend of keynote speeches (including at the UN!), skill building, and discussions centered around social impact, the climate, international affairs, and global education.
