One Young Kashmir Youth Leadership Summit


THE IDEA
One Young Kashmir (OYK) is a first-of-it's-kind, youth-led initiative to bring together the youth of Kashmir to speak on issues that concern them most; Rights, Culture and Economy. This is your time to speak and be heard, your time to discuss the biggest problems that we face today, suggest solutions to them and even make them known to the decision-makers for consideration. You can speak without fear and argue without being misunderstood. We believe that we should have a say in our future- do you ? The event provides opportunities for creative expression (through talent showcasing), leadershiplearning and networking opportunities.

HOW IT WORKS
The main focus of OYK is a 3-day discussion on issues like Rights, Culture and Economy with reference to Kashmir. Groups of youth get together to express their take on the various issues concerning Kashmir and suggest solutions based on their aspirations. We have experts to guide them in formulating their opinion as well as the solution.

OYK IS EXCLUSIVE
OYK is an exclusive event- Participants will be selected from among students, working professionals and young entrepreneurs in the age-group 17-30. Each application will be evaluated individually and participants will be shortlisted on the basis of their level of understanding and passion for the issues we face as Kashmiris. The selection process will be transparent and the only thing that differentiates one person from another is their passion about Kashmir, the problems facing Kashmir and their desire to solve them.

WHAT IT ASPIRES TO ACIHEVE
3 days where you have meaningful discussions with your peers for solving our toughest problems. By the end of the event, we want you to have:

A voice,
More Awareness,
Expert Knowledge on a particular issue,
Better leadership skills,
More networks,
A say in what future Kashmir should look like!
