Why this matters

Why Pakistan needs more youth leaders

Pakistan has one of the largest youth populations in the world. These young people carry the energy, innovation and ideas to solve real problems but many never get the chance to build leadership skills beyond the classroom.

YLP 2.0 exists to prepare Pakistan's youth to lead positive change in their universities, communities, workplaces and society at large.

"Don't wait for change. Be the change."

A movement, not just a program

YLP 2.0 connects students from universities across the country through a mix of physical and virtual activities making leadership accessible no matter your city.
