Empowering youth.
Enhancing research.
Establishing discourse.

We need actionable research on youth centric issues,
but there’s a big information gap.

Young people are a crucial demographic data point when it comes to political research
we enhance existing knowledge and build onto political discourse by shedding light on age
and youth as a vital variable in research.

Young people’s issues and causes need to be brought into the mainstream.

Information is power.

Disseminating quality research by and for the youth helps develop them as a socio-political category.

Mapping India’s Youth


India has the largest youth demographic in the world, with upwards of 670 million Indians below the age of 25. Each state in India also has a demographic dividend, and CYP’s work focuses on highlighting them such that they’re a part of our discourse. Explore our map to find out interesting youth-centric details about each state, such as the youth demographic, their respective Youth Affairs Department and Minsiter as well as their state’s Youth Policy. We want to our young people on the map—use this directory as your one stop for all things youth related.
