                                                                local as well as  the  international community they
         Though most of us started this journey because our

         each other’s feedback and present them without         allow this youth leadership forum to evolve and
         inhibitions, which also gave us the confidence to be    encourage, the youth in the community to become
         an active participant in any conversation. It has      leaders, for years to come.
         helped  us  develop  leadership  skills like taking
         initiative, self-governance, communication skills,
         and many more. This brought the idea of forming a
         leadership forum to create more opportunity for
         the youth to get engaged and involved in the
         community.  I  think,  I  along,  with  the  others  who
         have gone through this journey, can contribute to                            Shreya
