Youth & Leaders Summit 2025

What Future for International Cooperation?

10th edition

For its 10th edition, a new format will be proposed: the Summit will take place on the afternoons/evenings of Wednesday 29 to Friday 31 January 2025, during the first week of classes.

The Summit will assess the challenges to the current multilateral order, the (limited) progress towards achieving the UN’s multifaceted Sustainable Development Goals, and prospects for future international cooperation.

Specific sessions will focus on topics such as climate finance, peace-building, conflict resolution, human rights, and the energy transition.

The Summit will be structured around different formats. Keynote speeches by a particularly distinguished speaker(s). Panel discussions with up to five experts, including one PSIA student. Break-out sessions where a small group of students will discuss with one expert in a more informal setting.

We're delighted to invite PSIA students to volunteer to participate in the Summit. All PSIA students are welcome to apply: first year, gap year, second year, and exchange students. Degree-seeking students will be given priority.
