The World Youth Festival (WYF) 2026 Vietnam Chapter has officially extended its registration deadline, giving you more time to apply and prepare your application.
Originally, registration followed a fixed timeline for both fully funded and self-funded schemes. However, due to high global interest, the extension aims to provide wider access for youth worldwide to participate.
This extension is your second chance. If you missed the earlier deadline or felt unprepared, now you have the opportunity to submit a stronger application.

Fully Funded Opportunity and Global Benefits
WYF 2026 offers two participation pathways: fully funded and self-funded. The fully funded program is highly competitive and includes a selection process through essays and interviews.
As a fully funded delegate, you will receive major program benefits while also gaining the opportunity to take on roles such as discussion moderator. This adds value to your experience and strengthens your profile.
Beyond funding, the program gives you access to international exposure. You will collaborate with participants from different countries, building connections that can support your future academic and career journey.
Who Can Apply and How to Join
The program is open to youth aged 15–35 years old from all nationalities and educational backgrounds. There is no requirement for English proficiency tests such as TOEFL or IELTS.
To apply, you need to complete an online registration process through the official platform. You must prepare your personal information, professional profile, and essay if you choose the fully funded path.
The process includes account registration, form submission, and payment completion. After submission, your application cannot be edited, so accuracy is important.
