What is YUVA

With a vision to influence, inspire and motivate millions of students across the country who are the pillars of India’s progression for the years to come, Yi started its “YUVA” Platform, through which it envisions connecting students to the community, the corporate CEO’s and the country at large, working towards a movement for “Nation Building”.

While India is one of the youngest countries in the world, India’s is also one of the most diverse, in terms of language, culture, wealth and topography. India’s youth therefore, have a major role to play in maintaining unity within this diversity.

Towards this cause, Yi’s Yuva envisions in bridging the gap between the youth of our country and the communities they live in by facilitating greater community awareness, promoting social responsibility and involving them in community development initiatives. This engagement of the youth at the grass roots will create the foundation for a progressive and developed India.

What is YUVA CHAUPAL

A Yuva Chaupal is Yi’s initiative to create active dialogue with school and college students and engage them in self-development, community development and Nation building activities. Yi also aims to provide a platform for students to become change agents.

Educational institutions have to play a pivotal role in developing and fostering the qualities of giving back to the society in “young minds”.

VISION
