As an island-wide project, Youth4SriLanka attempts to engage 25000+ youth across 15+ districts, empowering them to be responsible citizens and educating them about the SDGs.
The project brings together many stakeholders from the corporate sector as well as public figures who are invited to be the Brand Ambassadors of the project.
“AIESEC has always strived to create young leaders across Sri Lanka.
One way in which we aim to do this is through social leadership; taking actions to make the communities around us safer and more equitable to all.
Youth4SriLanka is an initiative designed to make a positive impact towards social and environmental causes across the island”,said Mr Kaneel Dias, the Member Committee President of AIESEC In Sri Lanka, on this initiative.
“Youth for Sri Lanka is an initiative aligned with the SDGs and aims to uplift the communities in Sri Lanka through 5 projects in various parts of the island.
I believe, as the youth, it’s high time we work towards the betterment of the community around us, and I invite everyone to join hands with us in making it a success.” are the words of Mr. Dishan Devakumara the Core Committee President of Youth4SriLanka.
Youth4SriLanka includes five large-scale projects extending over two months starting from the month of February.
