YOUTH PARLIAMENTARIANS NEEDED FOR THE FALKLANDS
By J. Brock (FINN)
Two people are being sought by the Falkland Islands Legislative Assembly to represent the Falkland Islands at the 5th Commonwealth Youth Parliament (CYP) in London, United Kingdom, 4-8 December 2012.
Attendees must be 18 to 29 years old and be able to demonstrate an interest in the Commonwealth and parliamentary affairs and have potential leadership qualities. Good communications skills are also essential as the interested parties will be expected to take an active role in the debates and proceedings of the Youth Parliament.
The 5th CYP will focus on governance, looking at the concept from a local, national and international perspective. It will be hosted and organised jointly by CPA UK and the CPA Secretariat to mark HM The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee. The historic and ornate surroundings of the Palace of Westminster will provide an inspirational setting for this exciting and extremely important programme.
Curriculum Vitae and written application (explaining why you wish to be nominated) can be sent to to the Clerk of the Legislative Assembly at Gilbert House (cprior@sec.gov.fk) not later than Friday 3 August 2012.
