Launched in 1994, the World Youth Foundation (WYF) is an international NGO committed to promoting research, developing and documenting youth programs beneficial to young people around the world. This year, between 100 and 120 young people will come together for the WYF’s 2020 Youth & Ocean Conference. The conference will take place from 17th April – 20th April 2020 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

The conference is targeting representatives from NGOs, youth clubs, civil society organizations, educational institutes, corporate bodies, philanthropic organizations, and officials from relevant government agencies, ministries, or stakeholders.
