Participants in the Know India Programme (KIP) are young Indian diasporans, often between the ages of 18 and 30, who participate in the government of India’s premier programme to deepen their ties to their ancestral homeland. The Ministry of External Affairs, in collaboration with several state governments, organizes the program, which provides participants with an organized introduction to India’s institutions, history, culture, economy, and modern accomplishments. Participants acquire firsthand knowledge of India’s advancements and difficulties through field trips, participatory workshops, and exposure to grassroots development. Since it indicates the degree of diaspora youth involvement with India, tracking the number of KIP participants is crucial. This program fosters enduring ties between India and its international community and is a potent instrument of cultural diplomacy. It inspires future cooperation in business, education, or public diplomacy while also strengthening participants’ feeling of identity, belonging, and pride in their Indian ancestry. By transforming diaspora kids into cultural ambassadors who can enhance India’s reputation outside, the program bolsters soft power for the nation. Additionally, it advances India’s overarching objective of using its diaspora as a conduit for international collaboration, financial investments, and cross-cultural interactions.
