What Is YLEP:
The “Youth Leadership Enhancement Program” is a new initiative which aims at encouraging community leadership among 23 to 35 years old. The program is being launched to gear up for presentation at the 9th World Zoroastrian Congress to be held in
The objective of launching this program is to build a network of enthusiastic young individuals and create a sustainable pool of next generation leaders that will benefit the community in the long run.
The youth will be mentored by eminent industrialists/entrepreneurs and receive valuable inputs/advice from them. They will be encouraged to support several community causes. What’s important is that the youth will have an opportunity to explore and experience the qualities of leadership, collaboration, entrepreneurship, creativity and community rooted ness.
In the year 2008 the selected applicants for the program will learn more about each other, share their future plans, learn how to design life goals and identify possible ways to accomplish those goals with the mentors who will be leading personalities from various fields and impart advice and provide creative inputs.
In the year 2009 – the selected Youth Leaders will be divided into teams and each team will present a program at the congress on
