Young Professionals for International Cooperation (YPIC) is a program of the United Nations Association of the United States of America (UNA-USA) that seeks to engage young professionals in discussions of international affairs, emphasizing the importance of multilateral cooperation and the United Nations. As part of UNA-USA, YPIC provides emerging leaders with resources to act on issues of national and global importance.
YPIC Mid-Peninsula is a newly launched initiative providing a unique forum for young professionals in the Palo Alto area to engage in discussion about current international issues through events focusing on significant policy issues, career development, and social networking.
We are a diverse group of individuals who share a passion for international affairs and an interest in the work of the United Nations. In order to create an active local dialogue around global issues, we organize a variety of events throughout the year, including panel discussions, film screenings, networking at local restaurants, and community service projects.
