Application for 2024 Youth Leadership program with Algeria is opened from September 21 and it’s deadline is October 21, 2023.

YLPA employs a highly interactive approach both in workshops and in a range of public and community settings. Through engagement in the activities, youth and adult participants will better understand civic participation and the rights and responsibilities of citizens in a democracy, as well as the role that social enterprises play in a community. Participants will stay with an American host family and have the opportunity to engage with and learn from their host family throughout the program. The program is comprised of an intensive training schedule that includes highly academic workshops, project planning, team-building activities, and cultural activities. After the completion of the U.S.-based program, participants are required to complete a post-program service project in their local communities.
