The 3rd Edition of the International Youth Exchange (IYE 2025) is a three-day gathering in Kathmandu, Nepal, under the himalayas, where youth leaders, educators, and changemakers from across the world come together with one shared purpose: to reimagine the future of education.
This year, we focus on the theme “Advancing Global Education Partnerships for a Sustainable and Inclusive Future.” The exchange is designed as a space for honest dialogue, skill-building, cultural learning, and collaborative innovation — all aimed at addressing the challenges education systems face today.
