PLE III 2019

Soon after returning from YYGS, I co-founded the International Youth Political Forum with several other high-school students interested in international relations, including many PLE III alumni. We officially launch on September 1st, and we are currently writing 10-12 articles every week to post on our website. These pieces discuss various global conflicts or events from the perspectives of the different countries involved to help students see multiple sides to the same issue and to facilitate discussion and compromise. Largely inspired by the conversations we had at YYGS and the immense diversity of experiences, cultures, and backgrounds there, we hope that the forum will inspire people, especially high-school students like us, to gain a holistic view of different topics and to have important and educated discussions about them.
