The Voice of Youth (tVoY) is a Pakistani youth network spread across 151 countries.

History

tVoY was initiated by a student of National University of Sciences and Technology, Pakistan (NUST) in June, 2010 to cultivate relations with youth across different strata of life. Its deeper visionary objective is to create a forum where the youth of Pakistan could mingle and enrich each other's perceptions and views.

Social media brought the conflict zones of the world into view. With the vision of a peaceful society, one of the goals of tVoY is to speak to millions about resolution of conflicts, their nature and root causes.

Considering the swift spread of online journalism and online information, tVoY aims to connect through the use of digital technology and by granting the right to express heterogeneous views.[1]
