XR After Party Recap
YOUNGA 2020 Youth Delegates Speak
“Discussions by youth across the globe with key decision makers are crucial for us to accomplish Vision 2030 for our island. This is what YOUNGA provides... For the past five years I have been working tirelessly to eradicate education inequality across the Caribbean region. It pains my heart to see the inequity that exists. The time for discussion and action is now."
YOUNGA is exactly what the youth and the world needed right now. I've met incredible people here and I've learned from each and every one of you. When I joined I thought it was going to be really hard to connect with everyone... but the whole YOUNGA team and speakers has made it possible to connect and feel close to everyone!"
"This is one of the life changing experience for me to attend YOUNGA. [So far] I had an opportunity to meet with experts and celebrities to talk about their social impact work and share our ideas to them so we can work together to meet SDG goals by 2030. It feels like we are in the community and have been treated like a family as well."
