šŸ“Œ KEY INFORMATION:

The World Youth Alliance Croatia (WYA Croatia) in collaboration with World Youth Alliance Europe (WYA Europe) and World Youth Alliance Southeast Europe (WYA SEE) is glad to announce that this August we are holding our fourth "International Summer School of Bioethics and Human Rights". After six successful local and three international versions of this project which gathered more than 350 young people from 2018 to 2023, WYA Croatia is again opening the door to young people from all over the world to join them in Å ibenik, Croatia from the 5th to 11th of August, 2024.

In collaboration of WYA Croatia with WYA Europe and supported by the Stiftung Ja Zum Leben, this project will host 40 young international participants, and renowned experts in the field of bioethics and human rights. The aim of the project is to offer an educational program on the important bioethical issues that potentially endanger human dignity and empower young people to respond to those challenges. Topics will be covered by interactive lectures from renowned international experts in the field of medicine, law and philosophy.

With the analysis of medical research, legal verdicts and philosophical principles, the participants will acquire a broad knowledge of the topics and will have a chance to articulate it in debates and workshops, thus practising argumentation and strengthening their public speaking and advocacy skills. In their free time, participants will have the opportunity to visit the sights of the city of Å ibenik and enjoy the beauties of the Croatian coast together.
