South Asia Sub-regional Consultation on Youth Volunteerism to Promote Participation, Development and Peace

Fellow Youth Leaders of South Asia,

Our respect and appreciation to our fellow youth in Nepal and South Asia for spearheading the goals of the Asia Pacific Peace and Development Service Alliance in empowering youth and communities across Asia Pacific through Service and Volunteerism.

This South Asia Sub-regional consultation is a testament to our collective efforts – we have proven that youth’s competence, compassion and zeal can accomplish anything.

May this event in Kathmandu together with our partners from UN ESCAP, Global Peace Foundation and Ministry of Youth and Sports of Nepal guide you and cement your commitment as we go forth our cross-regional and cross-cultural youth service network for action in our region.

In Service,
