Fulbright Canada Speaker Series - 30th Anniversary Panel
Fulbright Canada post-COVID Challenge Launch:
Youth Voices, Unique Ideas
Thursday, October 15, 2020 - 1 PM EDT
Fulbright Canada is pleased to host the first of many 30th Anniversary panels as part of our ongoing Speaker Series. The panel will feature five exceptional young people who are leaders in their communities and marks the launch of the Fulbright Canada post-COVID Challenge. During the webcast, the youth will share their experiences and their perspectives on the importance of youth engagement during this transformative moment.
"Supported by a generous initial gift from Fulbright Canada Board member Ajay Royan, the Fulbright Canada Post-COVID Challenge is the signature program in Fulbright Canada’s 30th Anniversary. It reflects our commitment to encourage, celebrate, and support the diverse perspectives and unique ideas of bright young leaders. Our goal is to tap into the next generation's creativity and imagination, with particular attention to under-represented youth, and provide them with an opportunity to present their solutions to the current crisis and their bold ideas for moving forward.”
