Publish the Essays
Dear Joe
Hope you’re doing good. I wish if you could publish the essays. It would be an asset for beginners of social sector aspirants also try to establish an intra-country network who are connected through this blog and supervise them personally with specific objectives. 3rd it’s humble suggestion if you kindly demonstrate any souvenir (type anything) that acknowledge our participation in this competition. This practice would help us in our future endeavors and keep us tuned with you as well.
Hope this may work.

Congratulations to those selected
Dear all -- My heartiest congratulations to all of you who have been selected to attend the annual meeting. I am sure you guys will learn a lot and share your knowledge and experience with the youth of your countries and the region, for that matter, when you come back. Good luck to all of you!
Dear Joe -- Let me thank World Bank and you for giving the youth leaders an opportunity to participate in this.
Cheers,
Imran Khan.
Thank you for all your feedback!
Really appreciate the time all of you put in the applications, your essays, and your comments on this page!
We will launch the regional flagship publication during the Annual Meetings and will feature the essays of not only the winners but everyone in different and creative ways over the next few months so stay tuned!
Thank You All ! :)
Congrats to all selected Youth Delegates! I look forward to meeting you all and making this initiative a success for SA youth!
Also, many thanks to all fellow youth advocators for the support and kind words! The sheer enthusiastic participation of each and everyone demonstrates the drive and potential of our generation in the region!
Once again, thank you Mr. Qian and WB for this laudable initiative!

Two is better than One
Please can you select two delegates from each country.
Joe please reply.
Please. This would be gender balance for each country and overall South Asia. I know the costs would be higher, but the two delegates will be a better representation.
Two is better than one
We would've loved to have all the applicants join and two is better than one, unfortunately there is logistical and budget considerations that we must take into account. As I said, we will continue to engage with all of you. Thanks!
I have an idea!!!
How about parallel events for the Youth of South Asia.
Here it goes:
1. There is WB office in every country of South Asia.
2. From the pool of selected applicants the people are invited to their respective country offices
3. The team meets a day earlier than the the event in Washington.
4. Discusses the same items.
5. Make proposals, recommendations
6. Submit them to the conference organizers in Washington.
How about this? Involvement of all applicants.
Congrats Winners!
My Best regards to all the seven winners of the 'Annual Meeting South Asia Youth Delegates' competition. Wish you take the issues in South Asia to be heard at the right place. Kudos!
Thanks!
Really appreciate the feedback! Sri Lanka is hosting a Youth Open House next Thursday to hear from youth and share about the World Bank's development practices. If you're in the Colombo area, please feel free to sign up!

Possibility?
Dear Joe,
Perhaps the logistical concerns bar this, but is it possible to allow someone to attend if they are to finance their attendance?
Thanks.
That is only for Sri Lanka. I
That is only for Sri Lanka. I am talking about engaging people all over South Asia, I will get in touch with the contact in my country. Thanks.
To Suraj
Yes, absolutely. Please make a request under CSO or Visitor at the annual meeting site and you'll be able to attend as long as your application is approved. Thanks!

Dear Joe
I also applied for SAR Youth Delegates but i think some people had better essays and ideas. Always willing to stay attached and work for betterment. Kindly inform me if I could still be part of any such program helping in bringing change.
Thanks
Visitor application
