TU Youth Summits bring students together to learn about travel opportunities and resources, explore travel industry careers, and meet travel industry professionals.

The program includes engaging activities that introduce students to new opportunities in a welcoming environment based on cultural exchange and mutual respect. At the end of the program, students present highlights from the Summit.

Travel Unity supports the local/regional travel dreams of young people ages 18-25 by giving them mini travel stipends.

Travel Unity volunteers in Ghana and Nigeria conduct local meetings in 7 schools across the 2 countries, highlighting topics around travel, culture, and identity to over 200 students. In 2023, students will have bi-annual opportunities to connect with TU’s US-based youth participants.
