  1. South Asia Youth Summit Organized by LYSA Hosted by CPPR

  2. Objectives • Build a vibrant and dynamic South Asia with a liberal foundation. • Facilitate exchange of ideas and to share best practices • Platform to 100 youth leaders from South Asia facilitate liberal dialogue on various policy issues confronting the region. • Develop common working theme for 2009. • AND above all – to show South Asian political leaders that barriers can be broken and dialogue can be achieved through common platforms to resolve common issues.

  3. How do we plan to achieve this? • Participants will be divided into working groups. • There are altogether 8 working groups • Participants from each country have been placed in the same working group due to geographical/ regional commonalities

  4. 9 working groups are • Afghanistan • Nepal • Pakistan • Bhutan • Bangladesh • Sri Lanka • India 1 – Delhi • India 2 – Rest of India excluding Delhi

  5. What do you do in the groups • You are required to answer three questions – • What kind of a relationship exists between the issue of the session and governance in your region/ country? • Do you think it’s a compatible relationship? • What are the alternative measures that you would suggest to address problems in the relationship?

  6. Why are we answering these questions? • All the sessions planned for the conference lead us to the one common theme of Governance. • If we as Young people want to make an impact then we need to start analyzing and constructively advising governance for a better performance and a better today and tomorrow for us.

  7. What exactly do we mean by Governance? • Governance for us is represented by State, laws, authorities, e.g. • Ministries • Government Bodies • Parliaments • Cabinets • Public corporations/ authorities

  8. What would the ideal form of governance look like? • Democratic • Decentralized and devolved • Transparent • Accountable • Managed efficiently and effectively

  9. Managing logistics • By the end of 24th Nov, each group is required to elect a representative for Summit Declaration Committee • Please give the names to Ms. Malathy. • The questions need to be answered and given to the organizers before Session V on 25 Nov, during Tea Break. • During Session VII on 25 Nov, the proposed declaration and sub themes for further action planning will be shared in the plenary for further comments and suggestions
