The annual One Young World Summit convenes the brightest young leaders from 190+ countries and 250+ organisations, working to accelerate social impact.
Delegates participate in four transformative days of speeches, workshops and networking. Throughout the Summit, Delegates are counselled by influential political, business, and humanitarian leaders such as President Mary Robinson, Rio Ferdinand and Professor Muhammad Yunus.
The next One Young World Summit will take place in Montréal (Tiohtià:ke), Canada, in September 2024. Montréal is a vibrant and multicultural city, known for its rich history, culture, and innovation. It is also home to many global organisations, such as the United Nations, UNESCO, and the International Civil Aviation Organization. Montréal is the perfect place to host the One Young World Summit, as it offers a diverse and inspiring environment for young leaders to connect, learn, and collaborate.
The Foundation will host an interactive workshop at the One Young World 2024 Montréal/Tiohtià:ke Summit about the role of voluntary offsetting in addressing climate change and sustainable development. The workshop will teach the participants how the Voluntary Carbon Market (VCM) works and how it can support projects that reduce greenhouse gas emissions and at the same time promote local development around the world. The participants will also learn how to design and align their own offsetting project idea with the UN Agenda 2030 and the SDGs, and how to communicate it effectively.
