To advance youth exchanges between our countries, We would like to officially and cordially invite you to participate in the 2023 Global Youth Trends Forum on November 9 to 12, 2023, hosted by the Youth Development Administration (YDA), Ministry of Education, Republic of China (Taiwan) in Taipei.
Your side has achieved outstanding success in many areas, particularly in promoting youth issues. Like you, the YDA is the main government agency responsible for promoting youth affairs in Taiwan. Over the years, the YDA has established diverse experiential learning environments for youth, raised youth core competitiveness, built the capacity of youth for comprehensive development, and proactively promoted other programs to assist youth development from the perspective of meeting the needs of society and young people. (For details, please see our official website: yda.gov.tw.) Therefore, despite the geographical distance between our two sides, we share the same concern for youth issues. We believe that this event will produce valuable results, help deepen the friendship between our countries, and bring the world closer together through youth exchanges.
YDA have organized a series of activities from November 9th to November 12th, including a two-day forum for youths from various countries to exchange ideas, engage in extensive discussions, as well as to take part in local tours and visits.
The following are brief information about the event:
1. The official forum language is English.
2. We will cover your expenses in Taiwan (including tour activities, insurance, meals, accommodation, and forum transportation). However, the delegation will need to pay for round-trip airfare to and from Taiwan.
3. Each country will send one delegation to the forum, including one delegation leader representing your youth affairs agency and three to five young individuals aged 18 to 35 with experience in youth issues.
4. Forum activity preparations:
