Over 200 teenagers from around the world, including Daithí McBrearty and Charley Duffy from Donegal, gathered in Kildare for Foróige’s Leadership for Life Youth Conference.

The conference was launched Tuesday on the grounds of NUI Maynooth, and brings together young people from the USA, Ukraine, Botswana, Zimbabwe, Nigeria, South Africa and Ireland to learn how to become leaders in their own lives.
