Over 3000 students from Private and Government Schools in Delhi, along with rural and tribal students from across the country will participate in this three day event, to understand the values inherent in sustainable development.

During the course of the festival, scientists, academicians and grassroots' activists will address local as well as global issues, encouraging students to take affirmative action as stakeholders, to endorse models of development that are most sustainable for our planet.

The participation of youth in this learning process will enable them to engage in creative thinking, problem solving and self learning.

The festival is also a celebration of "Yuva Ekta: Youth Unite", the Community Outreach program, with urban and rural youth coming together in the fight against desertification and poverty, in an effort to preserve bio-diversity and natural resources. A solidarity between the privileged and underprivileged, united by a common Vision.

Each morning the students will have an opportunity to meet the "Green Warriors" - outstanding men and women who have battled these issues in various fora, and have a wealth of experience to share.

The afternoons offer workshops in creative expression like theatre, music, dance, painting, mural making, puppetry and others, through which the students would express their vision of environmental integrity.

Film screenings, street plays, workshops, lectures would enable the children learn new skills and leave the festival with an inspired Action Plan for themselves and their peer group. Truly Young Visionaries!
