Over 150 young people representing ten countries engaged in the 2017 Global Peace Youth Exchange in Nepal from April 19-28. Delegates participated in leadership development workshops, an service project with locals affected by the devastating earthquake in 2015, and a four-day outdoor adventure challenge cultivating self-reflection and teambuilding, essential components of moral and innovative leadership.
