The URI Global Youth CC has 510 members from over 25 different religious and spiritual traditions. As part of the Multi region, the CC involves youth from around the world.
In honor of the URI 10th Anniversary, 15 Youth Ambassadors will be organizing interfaith service projects in their communities in Somalia, Kenya, Nepal, Pakistan, the Philippines, Australia, Morocco, Malaysia...These service projects will each be of their own design.
