About Us

Since 2023, Team Ad Astra has been working to provide high school students with memorable educational experiences worldwide. What began as a small Estonian youth-led initiative quickly developed into a global presence. Through close collaboration with various United Nations organizations, international funds, and the European Parliament, students have gathered in cities such as New York, Washington, D.C., Brussels, Strasbourg, and Tallinn.

The Ad Astra International Youth Forum aims to empower exceptional students from across the globe to develop their leadership and creative potential. Our mission is to provide transformative experiences that launch international careers and foster cross-cultural understanding, helping ambitious young minds shape the future of our world. This year, powered by a team of experienced event organizers and youth workers, Ad Astra welcomes 700 exceptional students to its hometown of Tallinn.
