Democratic Sangha launches Young Leaders for Social Change programme in Vijayawada
Young Leaders for Social Change (YLSC) programme is a four-month civic and social leadership programme designed for students from classes VIII to XII
Democracy-focused civic organisation Democratic Sangha inaugurated its Young Leaders for Social Change (YLSC) programme in Vijayawada on Saturday. The four-month leadership development initiative targets students from classes VIII to XII, aiming to enhance civic awareness and leadership skills among the participants. Non-partisan organisation Democratic Sangha, founded by Chaitanya MRSK, Regina Cassandra, and Deepti Alapati, is spearheading the programme.
The Vijayawada cohort of YLSC will run from October 2026 to January 2027, under the guidance of mentor Yasaswini Peddi, a professional with expertise in grassroots innovation, entrepreneurship, sustainability, and community development. The programme combines interactive learning with discussions involving public figures and social-sector professionals, while also providing students with an opportunity to work collaboratively on real-world social and community issues.
Following the Vijayawada launch, YLSC has expanded to its fourth city, following previous cohorts in Hyderabad and Bengaluru.
