Before participating in the Global Young Leaders Conference, I was hesitant and doubtful with my abilities as a young diplomat and leader. However, after the 12 day experience, I have truly grown into a better version of myself.The conference tested my social, diplomatic and independent skills and really taught me so much about the world around me as well as myself. I was able to learn about so many different people's cultures and religions and got to share my background as well, as we were given the platform to do so. It was an amazing atmosphere filled with intelligent, like-minded people who shared the same idea as me: to change the world. I met some incredible people from around the world, in which I still keep in contact with. I would recommend this conference to anyone who wants to take a step outside of their comfort zone and who wants to feel challenged as well as rewarded. This is an amazing opportunity you'll remember for the rest of your life! Was the best risk I've ever taken.
