Description
The India Youth Forum is the brainchild of the Youth Time Movement, a group of young activists from across 11 countries who have taken it as their mission to craft a new future through active campaigning and dialogue. Their fundamental goal is to motivate and empower the youth of the world.
In the past, Youth Time has organized two youth forums, in 2010 and 2011, on the island of Rhodes in Greece. In total, over 300 young people from 70 different countries participated in these forums. The movement has also successfully conducted an international summer school in the Altai region. Furthermore, in 2011, they also set up a series of remote projects including an international competition on ‘Space and the future of mankind’, which marked the 50th anniversary of the first human flight into outer space. Some 600 works by young and talented architects, designers, web designers and journalists were entered. Sixty winners got the opportunity to see with their own eyes, and feel, a rocket being sent on a space mission at the Baikonur Cosmodrome. Another remote project was called, ‘My dream education’, which enabled us to assemble an ideal representation of youth education in different countries.
Their mission is to continuously challenge themselves and thus they present to you the India Youth Forum 2012, which will be held from 29 March to 1 April.
The theme for the India Youth Forum is ‘My Country of My Dreams’. We live in troubled times and the responsibility has come upon us to not only dream, but put our dreams into action and build the country of our dreams. The time has come for action and we must now move beyond constructive dialogue and implement our knowledge into a reality which will show effective results.

The organizers of the event did not post any information concerning the cost, so I would encourage you to contact them and ask your question, seeing as they are best suited to reply.
