Whom:
Hundreds of (new) friends from universities in 50 countries. 61% of Millennium Delegates are in leadership roles (leading campus chapters of organizations like Engineers Without Borders, Nourish International and Students Helping Honduras to name a few) on their campuses.
Where:
Washington D.C. The official host campus of MCC16 is the historic Howard University.
The 8th Annual Millennium Campus Conference – MCC16 – is a launchpad for undergraduate university student leaders to learn, grow, and connect to their next professional steps in the global development sector. MCC16 is a program of the Millennium Campus Network (MCN).
MCC Delegates meet like-minded peer university student leaders through team-based discussions, get concrete skills, join campaign working teams, and launch their ideas.
The annual MCC, hosted by the Millennium Campus Network, is one of the most celebrated global convenings for youth advancing the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. We are looking for the most driven youth leaders passionate about leading with humility and empathy to advance global development. In 2015, the summit received over 2,000 global applications from youth across 805 universities in 120 countries. There are a maximum of 400 Millennium Delegate spaces available worldwide this year.
The Millennium Campus Conference is constantly expanding its network of those passionate about youth leadership, global development and the Sustainable Development Goals. Whether you are an undergraduate leader, a graduate student, professional or part of an organization, we want to see you at the conference in D.C. this summer!
