Welcome to the blog of YCI's Youth Workers Delegation to India

Welcome to our new blog.

on 9 Jan 2007, 8 Youth workers from YMCAs across the UK and Ireland will travel to India. There we will visit Nagpur YMCA, to find out all about their work to combat the growing HIV and Aids crisis in India. We'll then travel south, to Kanyakumari on the southern tip on India to find out about the work that has been done to re-build peoples lives following the devastation of the Tsunami.

We hope to learn from the YMCAs in India about the work they are doing and how this can impact on our own work back home and also to develop our won skills to use these experiences when we get home, sharing them through global youth work with the young people we work with.

We will also publish several podcasts during our stay...so keep coming back to visit us.
