American Youth Leadership Program

  The American Youth Leadership Program offers opportunities for American high students and educators to travel abroad on a three- to four-week-long exchange   program to gain first-hand knowledge of foreign cultures and to collaborate on solving global issues.   Several different organizations implement this program, and   each has organized an academic and experiential educational exchange focused on dialogue and debate, leadership development, and community service.   Recruitment areas and application deadlines vary, so please check the American Youth Leadership Program http://exchanges.state.gov/youth/programs/ylp/current-youth-leaderships-programs.html>  website for more information.
