The British Council is calling for participants for a network promoting “new energy to the important North-American - European partnership, that will bring together outstanding young leaders from diverse backgrounds to address challenges like climate change, global trade, economic fairness and religious and ideological conflict".
"By connecting rising young leaders who will be in the vanguard of their leadership in the year 2020, the British Council writes, TN2020 will grow an understanding of different cultural beliefs and values that can be turned into action".
TN2020 will hold its first one-week summit, jointly hosted by Northern Ireland and Ireland, between 28 September and 4 October 2008, when approximately 100 participants from across Europe and North America will come together for a week of visits and debates.
