AFS-USA is launching a Youth Ambassador Sustainability Project this fall for young leaders ages 15-21 to attend a 4-week (online), 3-day (in-person) course of leadership training followed by the design and implementation of a community project using UN sustainable goals.
The AFS-USA Study Abroad, Travel, and Orientations teams are all very happy to share that we now have AFSers on program in Argentina, Denmark, and Kenya. Despite overcoming some travel challenges, all participants are now on program, and we are getting very positive reports about their experiences so far.
