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.
This letter from Rali Jamali urges Canada to advance SDGs 10, 16, and 17 by holding companies accountable for resource exploitation, ensuring local benefits, and promoting equitable international development projects that prioritize Indigenous, women, and youth participation. It calls for ethical, inclusive policies to align with Canada’s global commitments.
