GOOD CHANGES WITH YSEALI

Launched in 2013, the Young Southeast Asian Leaders Initiative (YSEALI) is the U.S. government’s signature program to strengthen leadership development and networking in Southeast Asia. Through a variety of programs and engagements, YSEALI seeks to build the leadership capabilities of youth in the region, strengthen ties between the United States and Southeast Asia, and nurture an ASEAN community of leaders who work across borders to solve common issues.

YSEALI is an effort to harness the extraordinary potential of youth in the region to address critical challenges and expand opportunities. 65 percent of the population in the ASEAN region is under the age of 35. These 400 million youth will define the Asia Pacific region for decades to come, so their full participation in solving global challenges is critical to the development and prosperity of the region.

The YSEALI community consists of over 107,000 bright young leaders, 18–35 years old, from Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam who are making a difference in their communities, countries, and the region.
