Our Delegates

GES accepts applications for projects of any topic, any size and any stage of implementation. Some delegates come with an idea for a project they’re hoping to start in the future, and some delegates come with an already existing organization they’re trying to make more effective.

Delegate projects cover a wide range of topics — from healthcare to education to microfinance to the environment. We’re open to any solutions-driven idea that strives to create a positive impact in the world. We believe a wide range of projects and backgrounds allows delegates to be resources to one another.


Attending GES was the gateway to finding life-long friends who share a similar passion for social impact. The encouraging words from fellow delegates and the GES team have been a catalyst for pursuing my entrepreneurial journey.
— Yuatro Nishiyama, 2024 Delegate
My time at GES was a revelation, unlocking new perspectives and catalyzing unexpected collaborations. The environment was electric, filled with the spirit of innovation and the drive to make meaningful change. It has left me energized and eager to implement what I’ve learned in my own venture.
— Julius Valencia Wambua, 2024 Delegate
While there is no one size fits all solution, we all have a role to play in solving this challenge. It is the first time in human history where we can have meaningful dialogue on ending global social challenges and as a result no contribution is insignificant.
— Samir Goel, 2015 Delegate
