Volunteers are needed for the One Young World Summit 2022 which will be held in the United Kingdom.
Who are we?
One Young World is a UK-based nonprofit that brings together the world’s best young leaders, encouraging them to form long-lasting bonds and effect positive change.
We have an annual Summit at which the most valued young talent from global and national enterprises, NGOs, colleges, and other forward-thinking organizations join world leaders who serve as One Young World Counsellors. Delegates debate, formulate, and exchange new solutions to the world’s urgent concerns during the Summit.

The One Young World Summit 2022 will take place in Manchester, UK. Over 2,000 young leaders from 190+ countries will be attending the Summit virtually and in-person, and we are looking for volunteers to represent Manchester as the host city by supporting these valuable individuals and showing them Manchester’s best hospitality.
Some of these young leaders will have never left their home country before, and for others, this will be their first visit to Manchester.
