International Events
For International Events we direct you to the International Administration Centre website.
They post all of the international events by country. It is worthwhile checking this site on a regular basis for Friendship Weeks etc.,
We would also recommend that you also check out the IPA websites of countries you would wish to visit, as they sometimes have events that are not posted on the IAC site.

INTERNATIONAL YOUTH GATHERING
Every year young people from around the world, siblings of IPA members, are invited to visit another country and participate in an event that many will never forget - the IPA's International Youth Gathering (IYG).
Participation in the programme is open to thechildren or grandchildren of current IPA members. IYG participants must have reached 15 years but not have exceeded 18 years at the start of the IYG - this is to make it easier for the Organising Section to produce an interesting and instructive programme for participants of a similar age group. Young people at an IYG will be permitted without distinction as to sex, race, colour, language or religion.
This year it is being hosted by the Czech Republic Section and is already fully booked.

Small, interesting country, our beautiful country
The IPA Section Switzerland looks forward to hosting the 2013 lnternational Youth Gathering.
The 2013 Youth Gathering has been designed for children of IPA members, who are between 16 and 17 years of age. Each IPA country will be allowed to send two participants with an option for a third applicant, if there is room. The attendance of the participants must be authorised by the IPA Section in their home country. The number of participants is limited to 50 and will be handled on a "first come, first served" basis.
The gathering will be conducted in English, French, German and ltalian.
The tour will start in the centre of Switzerland and we want to show the diversity of our country to the participants: Culture, city-life, the Alps, and the beautiful lakesides in the West of Switzerland.
