About iVision
What is iVision Youth Parliament?

iVision Youth Parliament (iVision YP) is a district-wide democratic simulation for school students, designed to help them understand how ideas become policies and how citizens’ voices can shape the future.

Students from Grades 6–9 step into the roles of youth delegates, discuss real issues, and practise respectful debate, collaboration, and decision-making. The initiative covers 183 Government Schools across 24 Educational Mandals in Hyderabad and culminates in a District-level Youth Parliament.

Who Is
iVision YP For?

Students

Students from Grades 6–9, primarily from 183 Government Schools across Hyderabad District. The program is inclusive of first-generation learners and supports participation in English with support in Telugu / Hindi wherever needed.

Teachers

Teachers act as mentors, coordinators, and committee facilitators. They receive orientation and ready-to-use toolkits to help them prepare students with minimal additional workload.

Education Department

The District Education Office (DEO) Hyderabad coordinates implementation across 24 mandals, with Mandal-level teams supporting scheduling, venues, and documentation.

WHY
iVISION YP Matters

Beyond speeches – it’s about shaping citizens.

Builds Confidence & Voice

Students who rarely speak in class get a formal platform to express themselves, in a safe and structured environment.
