 Murali Krishna Magesan, a New Zealand-born Hindu is invited to lead the 4th World Hindu Youth Meet

Hindu Students & Youth Network is a platform for youth by youth to build leadership capabilities in young people enabling them to reach their full potential in multi-disciplinary areas. It aims to provide an opportunity to inspire young achievers, activists, leaders, academicians, and thought leaders. It offers peer-to-peer learning, inspiration, and motivation.

The aim of this conference is to prepare Hindu youth aged between 15 to 35 years to better rise to the challenges of the 21st century. The energy and enthusiasm in this age group are dynamic and work to create positive movements toward a more capable global Hindu community.

Murali Krishna Magesan, a New Zealand-born Hindu youth, has been invited to coordinate this conference. Ramdas (Ishan) Tiwari from Bharat will be the Conference Joint Coordinator.

Murali Krishna Magesan is the President of Hindu Youth New Zealand and was the co-chairperson of the Youth Advisory Panel, one of the six demographic advisory panels Auckland Council has as part of their community engagement mechanisms.
