Attending this conference was an amazing experience that highlighted the importance of young people sharing their cultures and working together. Through the discussions and activities, I learned so much about our commonalities and the challenges we face in our region. The theme of "Sharing Beauty and Practicing Mutual Appreciation Among Youth" resonated with me, as it showed that we can learn so much from each other when we come together. Meeting other delegates from diverse backgrounds helped me understand how diverse and interesting our cultures are.
