Deadline: 1 October 2023
Submissions are now open for 10th edition of the Model OSCE for Youth, organized by the OSCE Mission to Moldova that aims to bring together young people from both banks of the Dniester/Nistru River to learn about conflict resolution and the importance of compromise.
The 2023 Model OSCE for Youth will reproduce OSCE principal decision-making body – Permanent Council – during a crisis situation. They will choose a country out of 57 OSCE participating States, step into the shoes of diplomats to debate and come up with a joint solution to settle a crisis and avoid a conflict. Only decisions made by consensus of all delegates, become politically binding for all participating States.
The aim of the Model OSCE is to build confidence and strengthen dialogue between young women and men from both banks of the Dniester/Nistru River.
