Rotary Youth Leadership Awards (RYLA) is an intensive training program for community youth leaders. Young people chosen for their leadership potential attend the program to discuss leadership skills and to hone those skills through practice.

These select young people attend an all-expenses-paid camp where they are inspired by a diverse group of exceptional speakers, make life-long friends through fellowship activities, and discuss the ethical and social issues of today. These activities are conducted in an atmosphere of trust and respect. The result is that these students return to their schools and communities motivated to take on additional leadership roles and to find additional ways to serve. 

RYLA's intent is to encourage students be more effective leaders. RYLA is not a camp intended to teach leadership skills (it is assumed that the students in attendance already possess those skills), however the following topics naturally arise in the course of the RYLA activities and discussions:

• Fundamentals of leadership
• Ethics of positive leadership
• Qualities of a "servant leader" 
• Importance of communication skills in effective leadership
• Conflict management and problem solving
• Building self-esteem and self confidence
• Elements of community and global citizenship
• Rotary's purpose of service to the community and world

This year Ryla will be a Residential Program between 9th to 12th Feb 2023 at SCMI Center Mission Road Cross, Bengaluru
