Two people aged 18 to 29 will represent the island at the Virtual Commonwealth Youth Parliament next month.

The Manx branch of the CPA wants two young people who live in the Isle of Man or who have studied in the Isle of Man to attend.

The International Youth Parliament is an opportunity for Commonwealth young people to experience aspects of parliamentary democracy.

Formal parliamentary practice adapted from several Commonwealth countries will be followed and the proceedings will be observed under the eyes of parliamentary officials.

Representatives will take part in education sessions, take part in parliamentary proceedings including question time, and debate and vote on legislation and motions.

If you are aged between 18 and 29, and would be interested in being considered, apply by sending an e-mail before 4pm on tomorrow (Friday), setting out in no more than 200 words how you would benefit from the experience and how the Isle of Man would benefit from your attendance.

Applications should be sent by email to [email protected] with the subject line: CYP 2020.
