"Young Voices. Intergenerational Meetup" is the title of the Youth Summit 2024. On this day, generations will come together, engage in joint activities, exchange ideas and learn from each other. In particular, the voices of the younger generation will be heard, as the global young@mission21 network repeatedly emphasizes that it is difficult for young adults to be heard.
For this reason, the day begins with a joint introduction, during which the youth ambassadors take the floor and we report on the concerns of young adults from our network. Afterwards, everyone is invited to take part in intergenerational activities and to use this opportunity to get together and exchange ideas. There is a wide range of activities on offer and each participant can choose two activities: one for the morning and one for the afternoon. Of course, lunch together is also part of the event. The Youth Summit 2024 will be attended by international youth ambassadors and Mission 21 alumni. We are looking forward to a day full of exchange! Are you too? Then register now!

You are also welcome to take your current handicraft with you to continue working on while you enjoy the company of the other participants.
Boccia
The boccia balls roll colorfully across the floor. Our eyes follow them spellbound. Who will win the game? The shared sporting activity loosens up the conversation and motivates us to talk about popular sports and more.
Gentle body activation and awareness
Despite the varied day, calm returns to our minds. Together, we enjoy taking a deep breath and reflecting, becoming aware of and activating our bodies. But the focus of this workshop is also on meeting other participants. You too can embark on this journey.
Bingo!
Whether we shout "Bingo!", "Yay!" or "Hurrah!" - when we play together, everyone is somehow a winner! This workshop offers all game and puzzle lovers the opportunity to get to know each other and exchange ideas in a playful way. Many different board and board games are available for this purpose. So: Ene-mene-mu and you'll be there too!
Singing together
In this musical workshop, the "Young Voices" sound together with experienced voices. Accompanied by guitar music, you will enjoy singing and talking. In this workshop, all your voices will literally be heard - whether softly or at the top of your voice.
