The U.S. Embassy and American Center Warsaw are set to host a PL+U.S. Youth Forum, titled "Better Together," on October 26. The event will be held at the Center for Innovation and Technology Transfer Management at Politechnika University in Warsaw. It aims to engage 300 Polish youth aged 16-25 in discussions about the future of Polish and U.S. relations in the 21st century.

This one-day forum also marks the official opening of the American Center Warsaw's new location at the university's innovation center. Media representatives have been invited to cover key segments of the event, including opening remarks by Ambassador Georgette Mosbacher.

In addition to discussions, various information booths will be available, featuring Embassy and Consular representatives, exchange programs, non-governmental organizations, as well as U.S. and Polish military personnel. A Virtual Reality demonstration by Immersion, a Polish VR company, will also be showcased alongside a photo booth with backdrops of U.S. landmarks like the White House.

Media personnel wishing to attend must submit accreditation requests by October 25 at 9 a.m., via an online form provided by the organizers. Accredited media should arrive by 8:15 a.m. on October 26 with valid photo identification reflecting their media affiliation.
