The GoalAs stated in WYA’s Declaration on Sustainable Development, upholding the dignity of the person must be the primary goal of sustainable development and the means by which we create a sustainable world. This conference aims to create a deeper understanding of issues on sustainable development. It also serves as venue for the Asia Pacific youth to engage in significant discussions and cultural exchanges.
