Conference Themes & Title: Cultivating a Nourishing Relationship with the Inner You

The 2022 YPC Youth Leadership Team chose to focus this year’s conference on these three themes:

• Mental Health & Well-Being

• Self-care

• Impact of Social Media/Cultural Messaging on Mental Health & Well-being

​

Conference Logistics

• Registration is open to young people ages 12 to 24, with a special focus on high school students.

• To maximize the participatory nature of this youth-led conference, we are limiting registration for the 2022 YPC to 300 students. 

• Attendees are encouraged to explore their individual interests by selecting their own workshops. 

• A photographer will be taking photos, and portions of the event will be video recorded. 

 

​Conference Workshops

Twelve (12) 1-hour workshops will be offered during the 2022 Youth & Peace Conference. Attendees will have the opportunity to select a workshop that interests them. On the registration form, you are asked to indicate a first choice and second choice workshop. Workshop placement is on a first-come-first-served basis. A monitor will be assigned to each workshop. Monitors will have a list of who has registered for their workshop and will be tracking attendance. View Workshop Descriptions here.
