The Global Indigenous Youth Summit (GIYS) is a conference designed to create a safe environment for indigenous, under-represented youth, and allies. Founded in understanding, compassion, and trust, this experience connects and provides youth with a safe place to share their stories. GIYS helps indigenous youth and allies expand their worldview through listening to the success of others, empowers them to develop solution based approaches to the inequities they face, and builds a community on a global scale.
