Call for YES 2017 team members

We are more than happy to inform you that the Core Team for the YES 2017 has already started preparing for the biggest YFU event scheduled for the summer of 2017. The Core Team this year is formed by volunteers from YFU Estonia and YFU Sweden, and content is coordinated by Henri Lempu.

We start looking for additional YES 2017 team members:

The deadline for submitting applications through Google forms (found in the Calls) is 21 November, 2016

The Core Team chose “Think free. Act free. Be free!” as the topic for the YES 2017. This year participants will focus on different aspects of freedom, such as but not limited to freedom of the press, speech, diversity, expression and assembly. Four days of activities put in the form of plenary sessions, free time activities, and different educational sessions will give the participants a unique opportunity to thoroughly explore what is hidden under this title. Since 2004 the YES has taken place at the beautiful camp of Werbellinsee near Berlin, Germany. The 2017 YES is no exception – from 26 to 30 June, Werbellinsee will be hosting all intra-European YFU exchange students and a group of non-European students, who spent their exchange year in Europe. Like last year, we expect everyone to arrive on Monday and depart on Friday.
