The Commission on Sustainable Development

Hello IYC and Friends,

International Youth Council (IYC) will participate at The Commission on Sustainable Development: Implementation Policy Session from May 4-15. In February, IYC members participated in the Intergovernmental Preparatory Meeting. If you would like to read more about the Preparatory Meeting, please visit http://www.un.org/esa/dsd/csd_csd17_ipm.shtml.

We are currently seeking for members that are interested in the CSD-17 conference. This would be a great opportunity to closely meet and work with member states and NGO representatives. If you are interested, please email asha.castleberry@yahoo.com. All participants must fill out a waiver form in order to receive a temporary UN badge for the conference.

IYC Mission

The International Youth Council (IYC) is a non-profit, non-governmental organization founded at the UN Youth Assembly in 2007 dedicated to giving young people across the world both collective voice and a mechanism to support global sustainable development.

Our mission is to bring together and support young leaders from around the world in pursuit of partnership, progress, and the Millennium Development Goals. We seek to empower the next generation of leaders by providing them with the training, resources, and opportunities they need to succeed. We also advocate for an official body representative of the youth within the United Nations power structure.

We hope to inspire the youth of the world to act and give them the tools to make a difference.
