The World Youth Academy (WYAcademy) is an international multi-disciplinary organization which trains young people in issues related to social development, international integration, cultural acceptance, social project management, security policy, bullying awareness among many other topics pursuing international peace and cooperation. The aim is to provide participants with skills and in-depth knowledge through our programs where we work on five for fundamental-principles Respect, Diversity, Vision, Hope and Attitude, in order to raise their cultural awareness and openness, and to offer a forum for networking and academic exchange. The Academy follows a unique format combining lectures, visits to international organizations and workshops with practical hands-on-experience on various topics of relevance. All lectures are given by high-ranking experts and practitioners who also share their rich experience with participants in an informal setting. Through their group work and social activities, participants are able to form strong networks with their like-minded peers and experts from various fields in an environment that fosters diversity, tolerance, cultural learning, and understanding. During the program, students get the opportunity to experience first-hand the UN institutions in Vienna and international organizations in other countries allowing them to interact directly with experts, practitioners, and diplomats.
