Every year, ten young professionals from Canada and Germany meet at the German-Canadian Conference as part of the Young Atlantiks Program. The program offers a small group of young Canadians and Germans the opportunity to discuss current and future challenges on both sides of the Atlantic and to create lasting transatlantic connections.
The Young Atlantiks exchange ideas with representatives from politics, science and society and lay the foundation for the next generation of the transatlantic German-Canadian partnership.

2024 in Berlin

From May 11 to 15, 2024, participants from Canada and Germany, aged between 28 and 35, will once again come together for five days to exchange and engage on current and future challenges on both sides of the Atlantic. In addition, the delegation will participate in the annual German-Canadian conference to be held in Berlin from May 12-13, 2024. Topics of discussion will include security policy and the changing geopolitical landscape, energy and the environment, as well as the impact of technology on politics, the economy and society.

Launched in 2019, the initiative is supported by the Canadian Embassy in Germany and the German Embassy in Canada and is jointly organized by Atlantik-Brücke and Atlantik-Brücke Canada.
