Over the past four months, 16 Youth Ambassadors in New York and Los Angeles have embarked on a journey of self-exploration and intercultural-leadership development that culminated with ten days of total immersion in Korean culture. On May 20th, eight New York-based Youth Ambassadors will share their experiences, including stories from a ten-day study tour to Korea with their Los Angeles partner-organization participants. Current New York City public high school sophomores and juniors are especially welcome to attend and learn more about how to apply to be part of Project Bridge 2014-2015.
