 Why
Make My Arrangements through the Conference Organizers?
-
Friendship Ambassadors Foundation together with our partners are offering
affordable, comprehensive accommodations and meals packages,
exclusive to Youth Assembly delegates - for delegates from out of town as well as for those locals who want to get the very most out of the activities. From breakfast networking sessions to new, late night events, these plans will ensure that you don’t miss a thing!
-
Staying together adds a tremendous benefit to the delegates’ experience at the Assembly because it allows you informal time with fellow delegates, makes exploring the New York City easier and greatly enjoyable outside the planned activities. For your safety and security, as well as to make the entire experience affordable and complete, we strongly encourage this option during your stay.
-
The goal of the packages is to offer affordable accommodation and special networking opportunities to participants. Travel Packages are optional and although highly recommended, they are not a prerequisite to attending the Assembly.
