The Global Youth Forum (GYF) is a one day conference for 100 high school students who are interested in international issues. The goal of the day is to expose the students to local, national and international issues, groups and initiatives. Students partake in workshops, games and activities that encourage them to get involved in global issues. The aim of the GYF is to show the students different ways to become involved in “making the world a better place” from a local standpoint as well as nationally and internationally.
