The International Youth Conclave 2025, hosted by the spirited Yangang Tourism Development Committee, was more than just a gathering, it was a statement of intent. Backed and guided by the Hon’ble Chief Minister Prem Singh Tamang (Golay), the conclave stood as a proud yet humble step toward realizing a bold dream: putting Yangang on the world tourism map. Nestled in the quiet embrace of Sikkim’s hills, Yangang might seem like a small dot on the map, but it made big noise on the global stage this April. With delegates pouring in from across India and countries like Nepal, Iran, and Bhutan, the conclave turned this peaceful town into a vibrant hub of ideas, dialogue, and vision.

At its heart, the event was a tribute to the Chief Minister’s forward-thinking vision of Sikkim as a premier wellness tourism destination: a place where nature heals, culture enriches, and the soul finds rest. Alongside conversations on sustainability and youth leadership, the conclave proudly showcased Yangang’s rich cultural tapestry – its age-old traditions, vibrant attire, indigenous cuisines, and folk performances that told stories no PowerPoint ever could.
