YSA's objectives are:
Active Citizenry
To deepen understanding of national issues among young Sikhs and to encourage
them to contribute to the betterment of our society as thoughtful and responsible
citizens.
Intellectual and Professional Development
To provide varying platforms for young Sikhs to strive for intellectual and professional
development.
Inter-racial Harmony
To strengthen inter-racial friendship and harmony by organising and actively
participating in inter-community activities.
Community Spirit
To foster community spirit among young Sikhs through community service at home
and abroad.
National Identity and a Global Mindset
To build networks with local and international youth groups so as to foster national
identity and a global mindset among young Sikhs.
Programmes
As a totally independent Sikh organisation, YSA's programmes are initiated by young
Singaporeans. These
programmes are designed to allow young Singaporeans to fulfill their aspirations and to
enable them to contribute to the betterment of their country.
From dialogue sessions, seminars and professional development workshops to dhol
competitions, cultural shows and sports activities, young Singaporeans choose their avenues of aspiration and contribution.
