Sunburst Youth Camp (SYC)

The first Sunburst Youth Camp was held in 1998, with 7 countries participating. In 2001, all the 10 ASEAN counties participated. SYC spread its wings in Asia with the inclusion of China and India in 2003 and Kazakhstan in 2006.

For the 10th Anniversary celebrations, Korea have been invited to participate.

SYC has grown over the years and we now have more than 1200 participants spread across Asia.

Objectives of SYC

To provide opportunities for the youth of Asia to come together for a week of sharing and to build understanding, bonding and good-will through out Asia.
