Call for participation and draft agenda (latest version of 4 Dec 2013 - pdf) and registration form (Word)  

The co-organizers: include Youth's UNESCO Club, Nepal, Eubios Ethics Institute, International Peace and Development Ethics Centre, American University of Sovereign Nations. 

For previous trainees of YPA workshops the applicants should have returned their evaluation forms from previous action plans (including those still current, whether or not the action plan was completed or not you are still invited). We are also seeking support for a few scholarships to assist those persons unable to pay the registration fee, but these will be very limited.

We invite you and your organization to join the Youth Peace Ambassadors International in building peace in the world through empowering youth from different countries across the world to share experiences of working to promote the culture of peace and to develop practical action plans with the inspiration of the young people. Since 2010, Eubios Ethics Institute in cooperation with partner institutions have organized five Youth Peace Ambassador Training Workshops across the Asia-Pacific with 480 youth from many countries and circumstances.  Together, the youth have worked to identify issues that can promote a culture of peace, and developed 220 action projects promoted at making a difference in their communities.

 Through the Youth Peace Ambassador International Programme, we are jointly harnessing the power, optimism and influence of young people to promote action and change for Peace. The Youth Peace Ambassador International programme is global in reach, and the YPA7 will bring youth from around the world together.
