Theinternational training program at the un is a means for wya to provide advanced training on the relationship between ideas and policy to young members who have demonstrated significant intellectual and leadership potential. Wya's international program covers un commissions and conventions.

the internship program is offered to outstanding young people who have demonstrated the commitment to the ideals and mission of the wya. Intern candidates are chosen by their regional directors, and have a track record of participating in regional activities. Internships in new york are three months long, and are a period of more intensive study and experience of the wya ideas. All interns are introduced to the un and are given the opportunity to participate in meetings or conferences related to the un. Interns live at the wya house as an experience of solidarity.
