Noosa teen Christian Hansen is one of only 16 young Australians selected to represent Australia in the UN Youth Australia’s Young Diplomats Program.
The Year 12 Good Shepherd Lutheran College student will tour Europe in 2018 as part of the UN Youth Australia team.
During the tour, Christian will have an opportunity to explore diplomacy overseas, be involved in discussion and debate about international affairs, as well as broadening his own general knowledge and experience about the world.
Student co-ordinator Karen Lunn said the selection process began at the start of this year.
“Christian was required to answer rigorous questions demonstrating his knowledge and views about a variety of political and social issues,” she said.
“From here, Christian was successful in making to the interview stage, and finally gaining selection into the program.”
“We are very proud of Christian’s achievements and know that he will be an outstanding ambassador for our college and nation.”
