Dear students,
Despite the fact that the deadline is approaching, we believe this is a significant opportunity, thus sharing it with you all. We are pleased to share the annual One Young World Tokyo Summit 2022. The Tokyo Summit brings together 2,000+ of the brightest young leaders from every country and sector, working to accelerate social impact. Delegates from 190+ countries are counselled by influential political, business, and humanitarian leaders such as Justin Trudeau, Paul Polman and Meghan Markle, and many others to harness the knowledge and skills needed for being impactful change makers.
Delegates will participate in four transformative days of speeches, panels, networking, and workshops. They will also have the opportunity to apply to give keynote speeches, sharing a platform with global leaders with the world's media in attendance and to challenge world leaders, engage with, and be mentored by expert industry influencers and make lasting connections. Together, the delegates will celebrate the Summit through social events and the unforgettable Opening and Closing Ceremonies.

About the Leading Asia Scholarship:
Leading Asia is an initiative designed to ensure that outstanding young people from Asia are represented at the One Young World Summit 2022 in Tokyo.
Across the Asian continent, every state is confronted by a series of interdependent challenges. After years of prosperity and growth, the trade-war between China and USA may have transformative effects on the structure of the entire region. The 4IR is predicted to cause upheaval for industries that have sustained economies for decades. There has been a rapid rise of censorship across the South-East Asian region, increasingly in response to domestic instability. Improving the treatment of ethnic-minority groups remains an urgent priority. The region is chiefly responsible for extraordinary amounts of plastic pollution.
In the midst of these challenges, it is young leaders who are devising meaningful strategies to build a more sustainable region. Are you one of those leaders? If so, One Young World is looking to bring you to the next annual Summit.
