How are you? And how am I doing myself? Following the Slogan "Yes, we care!" we address our mental, spiritual, and physical well-being in the midst of the pandemic and beyond. In six different workshops, participants gain insights into different aspects of well-being. In addition, the Youth Summit offers an international online meeting place for young people, with many opportunities for exchange and a concluding afterparty.

Registration for the workshops is part of the registration form for the Youth Summit.
