Hosted by our longstanding partner, Allen & Overy, we invited all Ambassadors and Delegates based in the Netherlands to participate in this exciting launch event for the 2023 One Young World Summit in Belfast. The evening will feature great opportunities to meet and network with fellow young leaders in the One Young World Community, some old friends from previous One Young World Summits, and some new faces fortunate to be attending this year in Belfast.

You will also hear from a fantastic set of speakers, including:
