Empowering the Leaders of Tomorrow: One Young World Summit 2024

The One Young World Summit 2024 is set to be an epoch-making event for
young leaders worldwide. Scheduled to take place from September 18-21 in the
vibrant city of Montreal, this summit promises to be a melting pot of
innovative ideas, leadership, and transformative discussions. 

Ella Robertson, Managing Director of One Young World, emphasizes the importance of this gathering. “We are thrilled to host an
event that brings together the brightest young minds from across the
globe,” Robertson says. “Our aim is to create an environment where
these leaders can share their visions and collaborate on solutions for the most
pressing global issues.” 

The One Young World Summit is renowned for its diverse lineup of speakers, including activists,
business leaders, and policymakers. This year, the summit will feature
prominent personalities such as Kerry Kennedy, Paul Polman, and Olympian Mark
Tewksbury. Such an eclectic mix of speakers underscores the summit’s commitment
to fostering a multifaceted dialogue on leadership and social impact. 

Ella Robertson further elaborates on the summit’s mission, stating, “Our
goal is to maximize social impact by empowering young leaders to initiate and
sustain positive change. We believe that diversity and inclusion are key to
addressing the world’s complex challenges.” 

A remarkable aspect of the One Young World Summit is its scholarship program. Robertson explains,
“About a third of our attendees are on fully funded scholarships, covering
everything from flights to visas. We aim to increase this to 50% by 2030,
ensuring that economic constraints do not hinder participation.” 

The summit will commence with an opening ceremony at the Bell Centre, followed by sessions at
the carbon-neutral Montreal Convention Centre. These venues not only symbolize
the event’s grandeur but also its commitment to sustainability. 

In a world where young leaders are increasingly at the forefront of social change, the One Young
World Summit serves as a crucial platform for exchange and collaboration. As
Ella Robertson aptly puts it, “We are not just hosting an event; we are
nurturing the leaders of tomorrow.” Refer to this article for related information.
