2025 ICN International Development Week: The Letter Initiative

For this year’s International Development Week, ICN partnered with the councils to launch a special letter-writing initiative. Youth participants were invited to share their hopes, visions, and actionable ideas for achieving the UN 2030 Sustainable Development Goals. They were asked to write letters to policymakers, offering innovative solutions and reflecting their aspirations for a better, more sustainable world. Additionally, the illustrations accompanying the letters serve as a creative reflection of the powerful words and ideas expressed by the youth, bringing their visions to life in a vibrant and impactful way.

Letter at a Glance

This letter from Anakbayan Canada highlights the struggles faced by Filipino immigrants, including precarious work, family reunification challenges, and systemic discrimination. It calls on Canadian policymakers to reconsider support for the Philippine government due to human rights violations and to implement policies that protect immigrant rights, promote equitable healthcare, and ensure job security. The letter also urges a reevaluation of Canadian foreign investments in the Philippines that hinder its economic self-sufficiency.
