Join us for the World Bank Group (WBG) Youth Summit as we explore the power of technology to drive prosperity and foster sustainable development. At the flagship event for youth at the WBG, young changemakers from around the world will come together to discuss innovative ideas and solutions for development challenges. The Summit is more than an event; it’s a catalyst for change, uniting youth to harness technology against the backdrop of digital access, AI, and sustainable tech. It’s a call to action for the digitally divided, a platform for marginalized voices, and a beacon for those ready to lead the digital transformation. Join us to power progress and co-create a more inclusive, sustainable world.
The World Bank Group Youth Summit is back for its 11th edition, engaging youth on the most pressing topics facing their generation and bringing together thousands of participants from around the world. This year’s edition will focus on Digital Inclusion, AI, and Sustainable Technology.
