Delegates
There will be 42 Youth delegates to the AYS. The Asia-Pacific Youth
Organization will source half of these delegates from specialized policy
backgrounds. Junior Chamber International will nominate JCI National
Presidents from all 21 APEC Member economies as AYS Delegates. As result,there will be two delegates representing each one of the 21 APEC member
economies. The intention is to have a balance between policy and practically
focused delegates that will enrich the final recommendations and declaration to
the APEC Summit. Additional delegates from the other youth organization of
Indonesia will be given access to the Jogjakarta meetings as observes based on
an agreement by heads of JCII and APYO.
Delegates and organizing committees of APYO and JCI will have same access
as delegates in order to provide logistical support.
Recommendation Development Process
Introduction
AYS is established to serve as a platform for young leaders to influence policy-
makers with their ideas. These ideas will take shape of recommendations on key
policy areas related to APEC.
Ten key APEC topics1will be selected by the APYO and JCI in liaison with the
APEC host country. AYS delegates will be asked to produce 21

theme: Partnership, Resilience and Bridges to Growth with four overall priorities: (i) Deepening regional

recommendations on these topics that represent the views of the 21 APEC
member economies. The process will be initiated by delegate own research
prior to the conference. These recommendations will then be fully developed at
the AYS through expert presentations, policy discussions amongst peers and
consultation with business and government leaders at the APEC Summit in Bali.
This process ensures meaningful youth contribution to the future of the Asia-Pacific region and that future leaders attain deep understanding of pressing
regional issues and ways to address these.
Policy Discussion Sessions
At the heart of the AYS lie ten Policy Discussion Sessions (PDS) covering each
of the key topics. Each PDS starts with a short presentation by an expert on the
policy field and is followed by four 10-minute presentations by AYS delegates
from 2 APEC member countries where delegates are asked to present and
explain the most important policy recommendation they would make. AYSDelegates will then moderate a discussion session by all 42 young leaders in
order to improve their final recommendation and add a regional dimension to it.
This process will foster critical thinking, sharing of ideas and collaboration
amongst AYS delegates on key regional issues and will result in an improved
policy recommendation. This process also ensures AYS delegates get a chance
to develop communication, leadership, research and collaboration skills as well
as ensuring delegates are exposed the different perspectives of key regional
issues.
Sample Policy Discussion Session Format:
Policy Topic: Trans-Pacific Partnership: Leading to a regional FTA?
2 AYS Delegates from New Zealand
2 AYS Delegates from Japan
Sample Schedule:
Expert Presenter: Jonathan Fritz, Economic Counselor, US Department of State,
(20 min)
Japanese Delegates Present x2 (10 min each)
NZ Delegates Present x2 (10 min each)
Discussion Session (30 min)
Total PDS time: 90 minutes

At the APEC Summit: Direct Stakeholder Engagement
After their PDS session the AYS delegates will be expected to summarize the
main conclusions reached at the PDS and incorporate that into a unified policy
recommendation representing their home country. The 21 recommendations will
be brought to the APEC Summit meeting in Bali, where AYS Delegates will have
a chance to interact with key policy-makers and business leaders and present
their ideas and receive feedback.
AYS Delegates will present their recommendations to APEC business andgovernment leaders relevant to the topic proposed. The main objective will be to
get high-level advice in identifying challenges and opportunities associated to
the implementation of these recommendations put forward by AYS Delegates.
After interaction with APEC leaders, delegates will summarize main points raised
by APEC leaders related to their recommendation and include this feedback in
the final document delivered to the APEC Secretary-General and heads of state.
This process will raise awareness amongst youth of practical obstacles in policy
implementation without diluting the strength of youth ideas. Furthermore, advice
received by APEC leaders will function as a springboard for continued youth
dialogue after the APEC Summit.
Once the final document is finalized, the JCI President and the APYO CEO will
deliver the 21 recommendations and the APEC Youth Declaration to leaders of
APEC member economies at a head of state meeting facilitated by the
Indonesian Ministry of Youth and MOFA. They will also deliver the same
recommendations to the APEC Secretary General at the final Gala Dinner Event.
AYS Recommendations and Declaration document (ARD)
The ARD is the key output from AYS. This is a document contains a APEC
Youth Declaration, the 21 Policy recommendations developed through AYS,feedback received by AYS Delegates recommendations from APEC Leaders as

well policy research done by Delegates in the development of
recommendations. The document will be formally delivered to APEC heads of
state and the APEC Secretary General. The ARD will be published on APYO and
JCI website and spread amongst both organizations networks
Beyond the Summit:
Both APYO and JCI will endeavor, through their respective programs to ensure
there is continued dialogue on issues discussed in the 2013 AYS (and embodied
in the ARD) through their grassroots networks in regional university campuses
and communities.
