The Federation of Zoroastrian Youth Association (FOZYA) in association with the Zoroastrian Youth Association (ZYA) of Pune is organising the event.

This is the second time that the youth meet is being held in Pune. "We will be organising team building games for the first two days for the youths. A seminar on entrepreneurship will also be organised. It will be addressed by board member of the Tata Group Adi Engineer. A seminar on community related topics will also be held. Renowned scholar Khojesteh Mistree will be the resource person," said former president of the ZYA, Pune, Zenia Vajifdar. He has been a part of the ZYA for the past eight years. "On Friday evening, there will be an entertainment programme, including a live band performance by the Jet Set band at the Poonawalla Stud Farm," said Vajifdar, chapter coordinator of the National HRD Network.

    I am so glad to see such events happening for our youth. I hope to hear of more such events so that our young people can meet and network.

    it would also be nice to have a meeting of Parsi business women to network as well.

    Glad that such programs are arranged. I would like to make a point though, and that is that such programs should be better advertised.
    I got to know of it only now.
