A future that permits young workers to live in security
The International Young Christian Workers (IYCW) Movement has announced the launch of its new plan of action demanding the right to social protection for all young workers. At the conclusion of its XII international council and global summit “Together in Action’’ held in India during the month of October 2008, the movement has reaffirmed its commitment to work towards a better future for young workers in its new international plan to be realised during the next four years.
"With the creation of our new plan of action and election of our new international team, we are committing ourselves to realising our vision of a new society -
a
society where the right to have a job is not a dream, but a reality.
We want a world where each and every one can access education that prepares us for all aspects of life, where equality of gender prevails and where we can be sure that our work offers us the chance to be independent and participate fully in society as young working people", says Thiruvalluvar Yovel, outgoing President of the IYCW.
