    Introduction

    Vietnam is on its path of globalization. Facing social changes and the challenges that follow, Vietnamese youth should be prepared with essential skills and knowledge in order to find their right life paths and contribute to the country’s sustainable development. In that context, Youth’s View, Voice and Vision in Society (YVS) was founded on May 20, 2012 as a youth-led organization by a group of Vietnamese students with a passion for youth development.

    Vision

    YVS will become a strong and extensive network of capable youth across Vietnam who, with the support of experienced experts and relevant organizations, take concrete actions in order to create positive local and global impacts.

    Principles

    - Share rather than teach or train

    - Discourses are based on a firm foundation of knowledge and skills

    Scope of Operations

    The main target group is high school and college students within the age range of 16-22. The scope of impact starts from Hanoi – the capital city of Vietnam – and gradually expands to other main cities as well as rural areas across Vietnam. YVS also strives to connect Vietnamese youth with youth in other countries, so that Vietnamese youth could learn from their peers and participate in solving global issues.

    Guidelines

    - YVS is organized by youth and for youth. YVS programs’ content, timeline, public relations, and finance are managed by YVS Board of Directors, elected by YVS members, with advice from sponsor organizations.
    - YVS operates based on voluntariness and always adheres to the laws of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam.

    - All activities organized by YVS are non-discriminatory, does not serve to instigate negativity in terms of political, racial, military or religious issues.

    The purpose when I and my friends founded YVS and organized IChallenged is to create an organized environment for Vietnamese youth to share critical thinking, debate, and public speaking skills, which are the foundation for the youth's self improvement, participation in current social issues, and the leading role in the country's development.​

    Joining in YVS and organizing IChallenged 2012, I expect to help young people, first to improve their logic thinking and rhetoric skills, then to widen their knowledge and perspective about prominent social issues. I hope that IChallenged 2012 will provide young people with opportunity not only to express themselves but also to connect with others.

    Joining YVS and IChallenged, I want to meet new people and acquire different critical thinking, debate and public speaking methods. I hope that YVS's events, especially IChallenged 2012, will encourage the young talents to share creative and distinctive ideas, to express opinions on current social issues, and to contribute to the development of individuals as well as the entire society.
