Tura, Feb 17: Ten students from Garo Hills are among 24 students from across Meghalaya selected to participate in the Youth Exchange Program in Jakarta, Indonesia, from February 16 to 22.

The Youth Exchange Exposure Programme was launched in 2015 to give students the opportunity to represent their schools, colleges, and institutions at district-level competitions, leading to state, national, and international representation.

This program not only enhances self-confidence and teamwork but also promotes cross-cultural understanding, encouraging participants to connect with peers from diverse backgrounds and build lifelong friendships.

Out of 600 applicants, only 24 students from 12 districts were selected for the prestigious opportunity. The program kicked off with a two-day orientation session in Shillong from February 14 to 15 before the students departed for Jakarta.

The 10 selected students from Garo Hills represent various districts, including:

•West Garo Hills

•North Garo Hills

•East Garo Hills

•South West Garo Hills

•South Garo Hills

This international exposure aims to provide young talents from across the state of Meghalaya with a platform to learn, grow and experience diverse cultures.
