The One Young World Summit, a cornerstone event on the global leadership calendar, is set to
take place in Montreal from September 18-21, 2024. Founded by David Jones and
Kate Robertson, One Young World gathers young leaders from around the world to
accelerate social impact and address pressing global issues.
Since its inception, Kate Robertson’s vision has propelled the summit into a unique platform where the brightest
young leaders can engage with influential figures across various sectors. This
year’s summit is no exception, promising an impressive roster of speakers,
including activists, business leaders, and Olympians, who will share their
insights and experiences.
The Montreal Convention Centre, known for its carbon-neutral status, will host the main
events. The summit’s environmental ethos aligns with One Young World’s
commitment to sustainability and social responsibility. This venue serves as an
ideal backdrop for discussions on topics ranging from climate change to economic equality.
Kate Robertson has emphasized the significance of the summit’s multicultural and inclusive
environment. The event attracts delegates from over 190 countries, providing a
diverse array of perspectives. This international presence not only enriches
the dialogue but also fosters a global network of young leaders dedicated to driving change.
Scholarships play a crucial role in ensuring a diverse and inclusive participation. Kate Robertson and her team
have set an ambitious goal: by 2030, they aim for 50% of attendees to
participate on fully funded scholarships. This commitment underscores One Young
World’s mission to make leadership opportunities accessible to all, regardless
of socioeconomic background.
As the summit approaches, the anticipation builds. With the unwavering support of Kate
Robertson and the One Young World team, the 2024 summit promises to be a
landmark event, shaping the future of global youth leadership.
