This is not a school exam, there are no "correct" answers. Reading lots of very similar essays (maybe written by Chat GPT) is very boring for us and makes it hard to select you. It's much better to have answers that tell us a bit about you, your background and your way of thinking! Not many opportunities? No problem!Some people have lived in three different countries and attended 17 different camps and youth programmes already. Maybe you have not had these opportunities. That doesn't make you a bad candidate! In fact, we want to actively encourage applicants who have not yet had many opportunities!
