Organizing Committee

The Organizing Committee of Asia Pacific yIGF is responsible for the planning, coordination, promotion, and facilitation of all activities and events related to the Asia Pacific yIGF annual meeting. The Organizing Committee is formed by ambassadors or alumni of NetMission.Asia upon the conclusion of NetMission Academy annually. Since the launch of yIGF Charter in 2023, there are more well-defined criteria to guide the formation of the Organizing Committee and to ensure diversity in the representation of our youth community.
