Ismail from Nigeria shared his favorite part about was not just learning about government but being able to talk to Government officials himself! Representing his voice and the voice of his country meant the world to him and to the members of the United States Congress!

"My favorite thing about CEW was going to the US congress on Capitol Hill day. On that day, meeting some of the representatives of the congress taught me how the government works and how I can use some of that to help improve my country. It felt so proud to have the opportunity to represent Nigeria in the US congress as not everybody gets to do that. I learnt how to be a capable leader and how leaders make decisions and how to work as a team."

Thanks for sharing Ismail! Remember Applications are due November 4 , 4pm EST this Monday! Don't wait!

As applications role in for FLEX/YES , Alumna from last year Yesugen from Mongolia has some words to say on what the workshop did to broaden her horizons and help her explore new opportunities she didn't think she could have!

"The Civic Education Workshop offers an invaluable and unique opportunity that not everyone gets to experience. The Workshop provided me with an outlet to freely explore my passion in both civic education and politics. By participating in the workshop, I further expanded my horizons and put my knowledge into action through seminars, discussions with elected officials, and real-life experiences on Capitol Hill. The week I participated at CivEd workshop will always have a special place in my heart."
