Ninth Pacific Alliance Youth Meeting to be held in Chile is launched

The event to be held in Chile will feature three major events: a food innovation bootcamp, the largest international virtual job fair in the region and will culminate with the Youth Meeting that will take place on October 23 in Santiago de Chile, which will bring together a thousand people in person.

May 23, 2024.- With the participation of the Undersecretary of International Economic Relations of Chile, Claudia Sanhueza, representing the current pro tempore presidency of the Pacific Alliance, and the CEO of Nestlé Chile, Rodrigo Camacho, the ninth Pacific Alliance Youth Meeting was kicked off. The event, which will be held this year in Chile in conjunction with the Swiss company, annually brings together young people between the ages of 18 and 29, as well as the public and private sectors of the countries that make up the bloc, to discuss the challenges facing youth employability.

“During our pro tempore presidency of the Pacific Alliance we want to link the PA with citizenship and one of the axes is youth. In this context, the promotion of solutions to the problem of youth employment in the region is also an urgent part of our work, so this Youth Meeting is an iconic event to address this common challenge among member countries. It is also time to consolidate the bloc with a sustainable, inclusive and productive approach, focused on the environment, MSMEs, investments and global value chains, linking us more strongly with citizens”, said Undersecretary Sanhueza.

The moments that will mark this version of the Pacific Alliance Youth Meeting are: the Food Innovation Bootcamp -an online event organized by the Innovation Center of the Catholic University, where interregional teams of young people will face challenges and propose innovative solutions-; the Virtual Employability Fair -the largest in Latin America, which expects to offer 5000 job and training vacancies- and the development of the Meeting, to be held on Wednesday, October 23, 2024.
