The YGA journey begins with the YGA Summit. Every year, over 20 thousand high school and university students apply for the YGA Summit, and 2000 young people selected from carefully evaluated forms spend a day full of inspiration and interaction with biplane scientists, artists, academicians and YGA Dream Partners at the Summit.

High school and university volunteers participating in YGA Programs take responsibility in the Science Mobilization project, YGA's social and economic development model.

People who have completed YGA programs mentor volunteers as YGA graduates. They work together on the job in a modern master-apprentice relationship that is not similar to classical mentoring processes. A YGA volunteer takes responsibility for more than 500 hours for 1 year. Volunteers who witness YGA graduate role models and their inspiring stories develop their double wings on the job.

YGA graduates have so far broken new ground in the fields of Equal Opportunity in Education and STEM+A, Women's Development and Employment, and Social and Economic Development of the Visually Impaired.
