For those who are teenager, I suggest you to join Glocal International Teen Conference before you miss your teen age!
It addresses issues which commonly we do not care however it is important for us in the future since we will get closer into our productive age. GITC also helps us to enlarge our network, meeting inspiring people across the world. The program itself is wrapped in the professional package including the committee, accommodation, and the event. I don’t regret to travel 2815 miles from Indonesia to Nepal to join GITC!
