  • Youth Champions will exchange ideas with disarmament experts from think tanks, civil society organizations and the diplomatic field, and develop their own plans on how to engage in their communities on issues related to disarmament, non-proliferation and arms control. 
  • The United Nations Office for Disarmament Affairs will support with mentoring and guidance throughout the programme.

Eligibility

  • You must be between the ages of 18 and 24 at the time of application.
  • Fluency in English is required for participation.
  • Applicant should have interest in international affairs.
  • In addition to young people with an interest in international affairs or international relations, they also strongly encourage individuals with a background in other areas such as history, science, economics, languages, film, media, dance, song, theatre, visual arts, creative writing or any other field to submit an application.
