What We Do
Discover our tools, solutions and programmes driving transformational change in India!
As a catalytic multi-stakeholder partnership, we’re dedicated to transforming the lives of 350 million+ young people in India. With 40% of India’s population being youth, the largest in the world, the time for change is now!
While the public and private sectors in India have acknowledged the barriers young people face, initiatives to address these challenges have often been isolated and not youth-centric or youth-led. That’s where YuWaah steps in!
Working hand in hand with Central and State Governments, the private sector, industry associations, UN agencies, civil society, and young people themselves, we’re on a mission and we need you to join us. Our goal is to empower every young person, especially those on the margins, by providing them with life-changing opportunities. Together, we will also embed youth centrality in the ecosystem and pave the way for a brighter future – one that is youth-centric, inclusive and sustainable.
In 5 years, YuWaah has impacted almost 100 million young Indians with over 189 multi-stakeholder collaborations as a public-private-youth partnership platform. And we’ve just started!
