Young Asia Television is a pioneering venture that was initiated in 1995 to actively involve young people in discussing issues related to sustainable development, social justice, human rights and peaceful coexistence. The effort of the organization has been two fold - while engaging a youth audience through its programming, it also sensitizes and provides training to its young production staff in using television to raise awareness on topics of social interest.
Young Asia Television's commitment to conflict resolution and ethnic reconciliation in Sri Lanka goes back to 1997, when YATV began producing and broadcasting the programmes in Sinhala, Tamil and English, These programmes continue to be broadcast weekly in Sri Lanka.
