As cities grapple with the intersecting pressures of climate change, pollution, water scarcity, waste management, and urban sprawl, the voices and ideas of youth have never been more important. We believe that youth are not just future leaders. They are present-day problem solvers.
Yuva For Action is a youth-led platform on a mission to transform how India addresses its most pressing developmental challenges. We empower youth with the tools, networks, and opportunities to turn intent into impact, in the towns and cities they call home. We do this by creating city-level ecosystems that bring together government bodies, nonprofits, corporate funders, and citizens.
Through this platform, we want to empower young people to become designers, implementers, and co-owners of development.
Across the globe, every major development has been led by students. The Yuva For Action city chapters are the beating heart of our platform. Self-governed and led by students, each chapter functions as a lab for urban innovation, with students taking initiative to create change.
Fellows will also have access to masterclasses, networking opportunities, and platforms to showcase their work nationally. The program aims to support civic innovation that is youth- led, locally relevant, and globally aligned.
