Purpose of the Delegation
The program was designed with the vision of:
- Developing Leadership Skills: Participants will attend workshops, seminars, and mentoring sessions with international leaders and experts in various fields.
- Encouraging Cultural Exchange: Immersion into French culture, language, and heritage will broaden perspectives and deepen cross-cultural understanding.
- Promoting Personal Development: Focused sessions on personal growth, public speaking, career planning, and entrepreneurial thinking will empower each delegate to return home with actionable skills.
Programme Highlights
- International Networking: Engagements with global youth organizations, NGOs, and community leaders.
- Skill-Building Sessions: Covering leadership, innovation, diplomacy, and sustainable development.
- Cultural Excursions: Visits to iconic French landmarks, museums, and historical sites to inspire creativity and broaden global awareness.
Expected Impact
Upon their return, delegates are expected to act as youth ambassadors, implementing community-based projects, mentoring other young people, and sharing insights gained from the trip. This ripple effect is anticipated to strengthen the foundation’s mission of building a generation that is informed, confident, and globally connected.
