FUNDED: Apply for the Youth Ambassador Program at the 8th German-Baltic Conference 2026

Applications are open for young people across Europe to apply as Youth Ambassadors at the 8th German-Baltic Conference organized by the German-Baltic Future Foundation. The conference will take place in Tallinn, Estonia, from 15–18 October 2026 and offers participants the opportunity to contribute to policy discussions on the future of Europe under the theme “Self-Determination.” Selected participants will collaborate with fellow young leaders, develop policy recommendations, and engage with decision-makers at both the national and European levels.

Participants will join thematic clusters and work together to draft policy papers addressing contemporary European challenges. Following the conference, selected Youth Ambassadors may travel to Brussels in December to present their recommendations to Members of the European Parliament and other stakeholders. The program also includes online preparatory meetings beginning in September 2026 to support participants in policy writing and collaborative discussions.
