Emerging Global Leaders Bonus Package 
 (July 30 - August 8, 2011) 

View Program Itinerary

Prepare for the Youth Assembly with faculty and staff from the event itself. Get to know about the history and background of the MDGs or take your own work in the field even further. The Pre-YA seminars have brought newcomers to the MDGs ‘up to speed’ on their progress or have focused on current youth-led development in the MDG field. In either case, Pre-YA participants enter the Youth Assembly at a heightened level: younger international students have become the YA’s interns and older participants have codified their outcomes so they can present workshops at the YA that enable others to gain from their experience. 

After the Pre-YA seminar, FAF includes a tour of New York City and a meeting with an NGO leader in Manhattan. This is always a very special opportunity to meet a leader in MDG success, working closely with the United Nations. This visit and tour are only available to those who take this package.

Participants at this level each receive:

  • A special certificate-based mini-course at University
  • United Nations guided tour in English
  • Admissions and entrance tickets for attractions as indicated in the itinerary (Liberty/Ellis Islands cruise, Empire State Building, NY Baseball game or similar, Museum of Natural History, Top of the Rock, Broadway Show or similar)
  • FAF representatives to guide and assist you throughout the program
  • Transportation from Retreat to Manhattan by private motor coach
  • 7-day unlimited Metro card for transportation in Manhattan
  • Youth Assembly tote bag
