One Young World Enterprising Futures Scholarship 2023 – Apply. Applications are now open for the One Young world Enterprising Futures Scholarship Program. See how to apply below and the requirements.

At the heart of every global threat is a failure of leadership. This new generation is the most informed, most educated, most connected generation in human history. One Young World identifies, promotes and connects the world’s most impactful young leaders to create a better world, with more responsible, more effective leadership. The annual One Young World Summit convenes the brightest young talent from every country and sector, working to accelerate social impact.

This year’s One Young World Summit will see 2,000 young leaders from 190+ countries descend to Belfast for the global forum for young leaders, during which delegates will present and debate solutions to our time’s most pressing issues alongside senior leaders. This will offer young entrepreneurs an unparalleled experience to become engaged, build on successful initiatives, and connect with other change makers around the world.

The Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) and their youth entrepreneurship initiative, Orange Corners are committed to investing in education and youth employment for this reason; aiming to improve prospects for young people, particularly in developing countries and fragile states, by bridging the gap between the skills young people learn and what the labour market demands.
