Leaders in the making

Youth forums bring together individual young Canadians from coast to coast to explore the issues that shape our country. Participants often engage in discussions and other organized activities that broaden their minds to Canada’s wealth of cultures, tradition of democracy and connection to nature. Most importantly, participants return home not only with new knowledge, but also with long-lasting friendships.

Individual youth may also be interested in a six-week exchange with another young Canadian where they can work in their second official language.
