The IAYP has been in India for over 50 years and over 100,000 young persons have benefited from participating in the Award Programme successfully. The award works with everybody who participates because they are working towards achieving something, and not necessarily because they are better than others. Why does this work? Because every individual sets his or her own goals and then works toward achieving them.
