Submissions are invited for the Yuva Tourism Club Selfie Contest 2023 by the Ministry of Tourism & MyGov India. Submit by August 20, 2023!
The Ministry of Tourism, a branch of the Government of India, is the apex body for the formulation and administration of the rules, regulations, and laws relating to the development and promotion of tourism in India.
MyGov is a citizen engagement platform launched by the Government of India on July 26, 2014, to promote the active participation of Indian citizens in their country’s governance and development.
Ministry of Tourism under the India@75 campaign has launched “Yuva Tourism Clubs” which is focused towards building young minds. These Clubs, which would be “of the youth, by the youth, for the youth” would help in developing tourists from a young age itself. Our Youth would be young ambassadors of Tourism. Experiences shared by the youth shall further encourage their friends and family to undertake travel. These young and energetic minds would provide unbiased feedback which would help us in improving ourselves and in meeting their expectations.
On the other hand, the Clubs would also help us to create awareness about tourism opportunities at an early stage. It would help to educate youth about the diverse cultural, heritage and natural geographies of the country, propagate responsible tourism practises, appreciate the importance of travel and tourism in education and would train students as skilled professionals in the hospitality/tourism sector.
Interested participants can submit their entries via this link.
The competition will close on August 20, 2023.
