The National Youth Ambassador Caucus Global Vision is a national charitable organization that provides real world experience to the youth of Canada. After my first experience with Global Vision, the National Youth Ambassador Caucus, I quickly realized this description does not do justice and is completely belittling what Global Vision really provides. I discovered Global Vision through a friend, and before he could finish describing the amazing experiences he’s had with this incredible organization, I grew eager to get involved. Even before I developed any sense of familiarity, I had a preconceived notion of Global Vision. This notion was proven to be accurate; Global Vision’s Junior Team Canada is world class. Through a national recruitment and outreach campaign, roughly sixty young leaders from across Canada were selected to journey to Ottawa to participate in the National Youth Ambassador Caucus. The caucus initiated on June 5th and continued until June 9th. Within these four short days, the NYAC brought me opportunities for success on a silver platter, and I had the choice to dine or to starve because Global Vision believes every experience is what you make it, and what you put in is what you’ll get out. Right from the gecko, you could tell the caliber of individuals Global Vision associates with, and immerses you in, is immensely high. The crème de la crème were selected to represent their region from across the country. Each day of the caucus was filled from morning to night with activities such as team challenges, the Amazing Race, keynote speakers, sitting in on Question Period, and a parliamentary reception. Through these experiences Global Vision forced me to break out of my shell, taught me what it takes to become a game changer, showed me what Canada has to offer to the world, and allowed me to use my global vision. From further developing your golden rolodex by building relationships with Canada’s finest young leaders from coast to coast to coast, to having a personal reception for you to network with Members of Parliament and business professionals, the opportunities that the NYAC and Global Vision provides is unparalleled. It is the only organization that I have been a part of that has pushed me to my limits and forced me to surpass them, to create the best version of myself possible. Correction: Global Vision is a national charitable organization that provides the youth of Canada experience that actually matters…and more.
