NURTURING ACTIVE CITIZENSHIP AMONG YOUTH IN INDIA: A CONSULTATION |
|
NURTURING ACTIVE CITIZENSHIP AMONG YOUTH IN INDIA: A CONSULTATION
The consultation will be held at the India Habitat Centre in New Delhi on March 3-4, 2009
South Asia is home to one of the largest and fastest-growing youth populations on the planet, with 33% of India’s population between 15 and 35 years old. In India, a growing democracy with a complex and diverse society, the challenge is to ensure that this huge cohort becomes a vibrant, constructive force that can address social issues and create a more just, equitable and peaceful world. Imagine if 33% of the population could be mobilized to volunteer one day in a year. We would have 3.3 million person days of active citizenship available! Rather than seeing young people merely as passive recipients of services and consumers, it is critical to recognize them as change agents who have the energy, passion and creativity to make a significant contribution to society while also building their skills for the future.
