Birth of Imagine Youth Nepal

Thinking that there is a need of an organization which leads the society to the Positive thinking and the Appreciative Inquiry, we have organized Imagine Youth Nepal here on 22nd May 2006 in Kathmandu, the capital city of Nepal as a whole Nepal representative body.
After a long discussion , interaction and meeting to establish such organization we came in this position . Keeping the main aim as Leading the society to the Positive thinking and establishing a culture of Appreciative Inquiry in society, we have organized this. We want to do our works jointly with other organizations when the aims match. We know that the world is lead by the youth , so our main focus is the youth group. It is the youth who can change the world if we can cultivate such positive thinking and appreciative culture to them.
