Young Trade Leaders will be exceptional young people who have a clear understanding of how trade can be of benefit to people and the planet. They will bring fresh perspectives and ideas about the role of trade and the WTO while also having the opportunity to learn about the organization’s work and advance its mission.

  • A citizen of a WTO member.
  • Neither currently affiliated with the WTO, nor have a relative who is currently WTO-affiliated.
