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.

The Youth Summit is the largest annual gathering of youth (aged 18–35) hosted by the World Bank Group worldwide. The Summit will take place on May 30-31, 2024, with activities and engagements in different regions and at the World Bank Group headquarters in Washington, DC. The Summit’s mission is to:

1) Empower youth to explore innovative ideas that tackle development challenges;

2) Provide youth with the tools to build and engage in impactful projects; and

3) Promote dialogue between youth, the WBG, and other key stakeholders globally.
