Global Youth Summit: International Mountaineering and Climbing Federation

The main idea of GYS is to promote peace and protection of the environment through different people working together in order to do a high walk or climb. World peace is not a utopian dream but something that we can all work to achieve. We can use sport as a tool for peace and international understanding.  If your group is organizing youth events between January and September next year, and you want to support the GYS then your event (or events), please submit your event to us at mail2006@everestnews.com for consideration to be added to the official GYS calendar.

Already several groups around the world have expressed an interest in the Global Youth Summit, and the former President of Switzerland Mr Adolf Ogi, who is Special Adviser to the United Nations Secretary – General on Sport for Development and Peace, has given his support to the Global Youth Summit. We want you to participate as well!
