MY Bharat (Mera Yuva Bharat)
MY Bharat (Mera Yuva Bharat) is a flagship initiative of the Government of India, launched by the Hon'ble Prime Minister on 31st October 2023, to create one of the country's largest digital ecosystems for youth engagement, participation, and nation-building. The platform serves as a unified gateway connecting young citizens with opportunities in volunteering, experiential learning, leadership development, skill enhancement, civic participation, innovation, and national development initiatives.
With millions of registered youth and organisations across all States and Union Territories, MY Bharat enables meaningful youth participation through volunteer opportunities, events, internships, quizzes, campaigns, learning programmes, and community-driven initiatives, thereby fostering active citizenship and contributing to the vision of Viksit Bharat.
