OYE's Sandra Fiallos will represent HONDURAS at the One Young World Conference




OYE scholar Sandra Fiallos has been selected to represent Honduras at the third annual One Young World conference in Pittsburgh from October 18-22. She will be going as a fully sponsored delegate.   http://www.oneyoungworld.com/giveaway/
From One Young World Conference:
“The One Young World team reviewed all applicants who met the deadlines, taking the following criteria into account www.oneyoungworld.com/delegates, including the standard One Young World delegate criteria, and gave every application a score. The highest scores per each of the 100 countries were shortlisted, and those shortlisted were required to provide additional information and references. We contacted the referees of those with the highest scores and where the competition was tough or we could not reach references, we contacted others. Everyone was required to respond in English, in a timely manner and answer all questions asked. The finalists were reviewed and decisions made with the Co-Founders.”
GO SANDRA!!!
