13th Melaka International Youth Dialogue

The Melaka International Youth Dialogue (MIYD) is an annual programme of the World Assembly of Youth (WAY) which brings together young people and youth leaders from around the world to discuss relevant youth issues. Since 2001, the MIYD has convened on a wide range of tropical issues. The MIYD has witnessed an escalating number of youth participants over the years willing to participate in the decision making process. With the view of building a stronger partnership between the youth and the society, the MIYD produces a declaration which serves as a guideline for youth to address the selected issues.

The 13th Melaka International Youth Dialogue with the theme Youth Migration: A Step from Haven will be held from 24th to 26th June 2013 in Melaka, Malaysia. This programme is organized in collaboration with the Melaka State Government, Malaysian Youth Council, Asian Youth Council and the Ministry of Youth and Sports.

This theme has been selected to highlight the reasons and factors of migration and to acknowledge the principal opinions of young people. An interactive dialogue on this topic will be of significance to form, educate, increase awareness on the adversities and prerogatives of youth migration in the different levels of society that youth represent.
