More information about APYS
Asia Pacific Youth Service is aimed to preserve the need of the millennium youth toward global phenomena by providing information related to internship, fellowships, conferences, social projects, and competitions.
Hopefully, by providing such kinds of information we could help to increase their ability to perform on tackling the global issues and challenges.
The human being represents a fundamental value in the code of Islamic ethics, and young people work to consolidate this value through giving, sharing, and caring. Societies are constructed upon cooperation among their members regardless of their status, because society is like one body, when one of the limbs suffers, the whole body responds to it with sleeplessness and fever. Young people represent a shield for this societal body, as Youth is the power of the nation.
