What is PTPI's Global Youth Forum (GYF)?
Since 2002, delegates ages 13-18 from around the world have been exposed to diverse ideas, cultures, and people while having fun at the Global Youth Forum. The four night/five day program equips students with the tools and inspiration necessary to foster cross-cultural learning, develop leadership skills, and make a difference at the local and global levels. This year's curriculum is based on the theme Learn to Serve, Serve to Learn, which has more than 10 hours of educational workshops, six (6) hours of community service work, as well as cultural and social activities.
