17 young adults from Africa, Asia and Latin America are visiting Switzerland from June 21 to July 7. As international youth ambassadors for Mission 21, they will spend two weeks in Switzerland with European participants in the Youth Embassy program. The two-year programme enables young adults to get to know each other better in digital and physical encounters across ethnic and cultural boundaries, reflect on issues and problems of our globalized world and look for solutions together.
Swiss media are also reporting on the youth ambassadors' visit: Radio Lifechannel interviewed team leader Barbara Grass from young@mission21 and broadcast a preview. Click here for the audio report.
The Youth Embassy program is supported by the Movetia and Wegweiser foundations. We are very pleased about this support. It helps to make this interreligious and transcultural educational program possible.
