Ensuring access to good-quality jobs for young people is one of the most important development challenges today. 65% of India’s population is under 35. Yet, for many, employment remains precarious, and aspirations often outpace opportunities.
At the Future of India Foundation, we are committed to amplifying the voices of young people in India. Through the Tracking Indian Youth Workers Media Fellowship, we bring their stories to the forefront—stories of resilience and ambition. Our goal is to document their journeys and offer a glimpse into their lives—their aspirations, experiences, and everyday realities as they carve their own paths. This fellowship brings the faces and voices behind the statistics to the forefront—recognizing the challenges in access to opportunities and sparking conversations that can help bridge the gap.
