CYP Asia Centre, Chandigarh, India, 20–29 November 2006
The primary mission of the Commonwealth Youth Programme (CYP) is to empower young people aged 15-29 in the Commonwealth. CYP believes that young people who are empowered by their societies can be a force of great contribution and advancement both for themselves and their countries. We also believe that young people who are marginalised and disempowered can quickly become disillusioned and may try to empower themselves through extreme measures such as civil disobedience and terrorism. Consequently, we develop strategic programmes that allow young people to promote their own development and be the architects and agents of their own empowerment through peaceful and progressive means.
