NSI Young Ambassador Delivers Speech at German Parliament for Remembrance Day

One of our NSI young people was selected to deliver a keynote speech at the National Ceremony for German Remembrance Day on 15th of November 2020 at the Bundestag, attended by The Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall. Jasleen Singh, a NSI young ambassador, was invited to reflect on 75 years since the end of the Second World War, 75 years of peace and partnership in Europe, German British reconciliation and her hopes and fears for the future. Three other young people from Germany, Moldova and Israel also spoke. This was a very significant moment for Jasleen, her family and the UK as a whole. We have now established a series of bilateral seminars, initially aimed at German and UK 12-14 year olds, reflecting on past conflict and looking to a positive future. We are nurturing the next generation of thinkers, leaders and peace keepers through the arts, through cultural exchange, through dialogue and debate. Creating powerful platforms for young people to have their voices heard in the UK and more globally.
