The Kurdish American Youth Organization will be
holding its first official conference at Vanderbilt
University followed by a celebration at Tennessee
State University in Nashville, Tennessee.
The Kurdish American Youth Organization (KAYO) is
dedicated to promoting the Kurdish culture and aims
to provide the Kurdish youth with a platform to
create stronger alliances and better communication
among the youth nation-wide. The conference will be
primarily focused on the role of the youth in
Kurdish societies and importance of helping improve
the situation for the Kurdish people worldwide. The
conference will highlight the organization's strong
commitment to preserving the Kurdish culture and the
need to increase awareness among Kurds and non-Kurds
of the culture and history, and problems facing the
Kurdish people in Kurdistan and around the world.
The main goal of KAYO is to represent and serve the
interests of the Kurdish youth in North America.
Through the conference, KAYO aims to fulfill several
of its objectives. Among those is to encourage
Kurdish youth to be more involved in their
communities and create discussion among the youth
addressing the issues facing the Kurdish people on
many different levels.
The conference will also serve to introduce the
Kurdish question to American communities and
organizations and to create awareness among the
people about the assistance that is needed in order
to help the youth in Kurdistan.
This conference will allow KAYO to establish better
relations with the Kurdish youth and spread
awareness about the organization in order to
establish a common ground of work to foster the
Kurds' diverse culture in North America. KAYO wishes
to serve as the voice of the Kurdish youth and
provide assistance to all young Kurds seeking
support in the fields of education, social services,
community development and cultural expression.
This conference will be the first of its kind for
the Kurdish communities in North America. Many
different speakers will be invited to the event
addressing a number of topics and sharing their
views. The conference will take place on February
10th at 9:00am to 5:00pm.
The conference will be followed by a celebration
featuring famous Kurdish singer, Dler. The
celebration will begin at 7PM.
All are welcome to attend. We, the Kurdish American
Youth Organization, hope you will join us in the
very first, but not last, conference and
celebration. We look forward to seeing you all.
