We’re thrilled to announce the launch of Serve the City Paris Youth Talks—an inspiring new initiative designed to give young people a global platform to share ideas worth spreading. The first annual conference is scheduled for June 25–26, 2026, and we’re kicking things off this spring (2025) with planning, organizing, and outreach.
Youth Talks Paris 2026 will bring together over 500 young adults, ages 14 to 26, for a powerful weekend of discussion, collaboration, and impact. Whether you’re passionate about humanitarian needs, the environment, peacebuilding, social justice, politics, or the economy, this is your opportunity to speak up and be heard.
Each speaker or group of speakers will have 10 minutes to present their vision, idea, or solution on stage. Every talk will be filmed and shared globally through media platforms to amplify your voice. Alongside the talks, the weekend will include interactive workshops led by experts—spaces where young change agents can dive deeper, debate, and build real strategies for action.
This isn’t just another conference—it’s a launchpad for the next decade. With the world facing complex challenges, Gen Z and Gen Alpha must lead the way forward. Youth Talks is a space for bold recommendations and transformative thinking.
We’re partnering with top universities and international corporations who are committed to supporting youth-led ideas. Some of these partners will offer funding, grants, and long-term backing to help bring your solutions to life.
Join us in Paris this spring (2025) to help shape something big. Be part of the team that brings this conference to life—and be among the first voices to lead global change.
Let’s make 2026 a milestone year for youth leadership.
Let’s talk. Let’s act. Let’s serve.
