New Delhi:

Former US President Barack Obama will be conducting a town hall event in Delhi tomorrow for the Obama Foundation. He will interact with an estimated 280 young leaders from across India.  "The Town Hall will expand the conversation about what it means to be an active citizen and make an impact and how the Obama Foundation can support emerging leaders in this effort," Mr Obama's office said.

"We'll also invite people across India to share their questions for President Obama online and anyone, anywhere can tune-in to watch the Town Hall live on Obama.org," said an official statement on Obama Foundation's website.

The town hall, which is scheduled at 3:45 PM tomorrow, will be streamed lived at Obama.org, on the Obama Foundation's Facebook page and YouTube channel.

In a Facebook message, Mr Obama said, "I will be conducting a townhall with young leaders of India who can share with me some of the works they are trying to do to make communities better and also answer questions on how Obama Foundation can help."

"Our India trip will build on the progress we made last month at our inaugural global Summit in Chicago, where we convened young leaders working to create change in their communities,"  Bernadette Meehan from Obama Foundation said.

"We hosted inspiring Indians like Trisha Shetty, who started an organization called She Says and Sanchana Krishnan, who organises a series of personal storytelling events called Living Stories. We loved meeting these civic innovators and hearing about their change-making initiatives," she added.

Prior to this, Mr Obama has hosted events with young leaders in Germany, Indonesia, and Brazil.
