Creating inclusive communities through the power of youth engagement

The legacy of the summit will be felt all over the world, as participants will deploy their learnings to implement youth-led projects for inclusion in their home countries.

At this summit, young people will activate together by calling on policy makers to be proactive in breaking down barriers to diversity, equity and inclusion in their countries.

This 5-day event will tap into the energy, power and global diversity created from being at Special Olympics World Games Berlin 2023 to drive global legacy in creating inclusive communities through the power of youth engagement.
