Represent New Zealand At Commonwealth Youth Parliament

We are looking for two enthusiastic young people passionate about democracy and diplomacy, to take part in Commonwealth Youth Parliament (CYP) 2024.

This year New Zealand has the privilege of hosting the event from 2 – 5 September 2024, in Wellington.

As part of CYP, delegates are immersed in a ‘real-life’ working parliament or legislature. Official parliamentary practice modelled off several Commonwealth countries is followed throughout the programme and, proceedings are observed under the watchful eyes of experienced parliamentary officials and experts.
