The Queen’s Young Leaders programme discovers, celebrates and supports exceptional young people from across the commonwealth, leaving a lasting legacy for her Majesty the Queen. In 2014 a search was launched to find exceptional young people to receive the first ever Queen’s Young Leaders Awards. The Programme is now in its fourth and final year and has formed a unique community of 240 influential change-makers, who represent 53 Commonwealth countries. The only Tamil to win this award is Malaysia-based, Siva Nagappan Visvesvaran. Kulasegaram Sanchayan talks to Siva about this award, and Siva's passions.
