The APEC Voices of the Future, an annual program held in conjunction with the APEC Leaders’ Week, is considered a platform for Youth's Voice at the APEC Summit. It allows special teams of students and educators from the 21 APEC Economies to attend the APEC Summit. Working and learning together, the Voices teams share their views on the APEC vision with the APEC Leaders, Senior Officials, ABAC Members and CEOs.
