Approximately 200 Hindu youth leaders from around the world are expected to attend the World Hindu Youth Summit scheduled for the Island of Bali November 26-30, 2004.
Among the stated goals of the summit will be the establishment of a Global Secretariat to internationally disseminate information on the Hindu religion.
Indonesia's ancient culture is founded on Hindu tenets, with Bali and its predominant Hindu population representing the last stronghold of that religion in the Country.
According to press reports, delegates are expected to attend from Indonesia, India, Nepal, the United States, Britain, Australia, Singapore and Malaysia at the 4-day event.
Among those helping to organize the event are the Independent Youth Hindu Intellectual Forum, Hindu Indonesia University, Ashram Gandhi Puri and Indonesia Hindu Youth Association.
