Exposure under five areas
Yuva Sangam is an ongoing cultural exchange with the celebration of diversity at its core wherein participants gain an immersive experience of diverse facets of life, natural landforms, development landmarks, recent achievements, and youth connect in the host state through exposure tours of 5-7 days.
During these tours, participants get multi-dimensional exposure under five broad areas -5 Ps, i.e., Paryatan (Tourism), Parampara (Traditions), Pragati (Development), Prodyogik (Technology), and Paraspar Sampark (People-to-people connect).
The programme aligns with the vision of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 by focusing on experiential learning and imbibing first-hand knowledge of the rich diversity of India.
