​Hyderabad: Five Young innovators will be representing India at Telenor Youth Forum Asia. Telenor group on Tuesday announced that it is bringing its global Telenor Youth Forum first time to Asia.
“The annual Telenor Youth Forum is organised in partnership with the Nobel Peace Center in Oslo, Norway and invites talented youth from Telenor’s markets around the world to find paths to dialogue and peace.
Focusing on solutions that combine technology, engagement and advocacy, the participating opinion leaders build bridges across borders and exchange knowledge and ideas,” states press release.
This year’s forum will be discussing issues ranging from youth unemployment to dialogue and access surrounding less talked about topics, such as mental health.
“By reconnecting our markets’ brightest, most engaged and tech-savvy youth to address challenges facing their peers in Asia, we hope to see creative solutions that inspire scalable programs that will empower youth in the region,” said Sigve Brekke, President and CEO of Telenor Group
“As we pilot the Telenor Youth Forum in Asia, we are not only furthering our commitment to an inclusive digital future, but also expanding this formerly Oslo-based programme into a year-round cycle of dialogue and production,”, she adds.
The participating 28 delegates are all alumni of the global Telenor Youth Forum from the past three years and represent Telenor’s six markets in Asia. In addition to India, these include Bangladesh, Malaysia, Myanmar, Pakistan and Thailand.
Born into a digital age, these young innovators are passionate about social causes and believe that the power of technology can create action and real change.
