What is YSEALI?
Launched in 2013, the Young Southeast Asian Leaders Initiative (YSEALI) is the U.S. government’s signature program to strengthen leadership development and networking in Southeast Asia. Through a variety of programs and engagements, including U.S. educational and cultural exchanges, regional exchanges, and seed funding, YSEALI builds the leadership capacity of youth in the region, strengthens ties between the United States and Southeast Asia, and nurture an ASEAN community. YSEALI focuses on critical topics identified by Southeast Asian youth: civic engagement, sustainable development, education, and economic growth.
Why YSEALI?
Approximately 65% of people in Southeast Asia are under the age of 35. YSEALI provides opportunities to harness the extraordinary potential of youth in the region to address critical challenges.

Who is YSEALI?
The YSEALI community consists of committed young leaders, 18–35 years old, from Brunei, Cambodia, Indonesia, Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines, Laos, Singapore, Thailand, Timor-Leste, and Vietnam who are making a difference in their communities, countries, and the region.
