The survey is an opportunity to get to know new young people and to deepen our relationship with those that we know in a superficial way. It is an oppotunity to discover what the other person is experiencing with regard to work, not only the conditions or salary but also the meaning that the experience of work has for young people. It means going right to the origins of the YCW when cardijn, still a young priest, asked the young people in the street “how are you getting on at work? what are the conditions like?

Origin of the Project

In May 2003, during a meeting of ICYCW International Chaplains - past and present – the lack of visibility of the ICYCW at international level was noted. From this came the idea of launching a big international survey on young workers.

AGEPC- West Africa Regional Seminar was held on the theme “The Future of Work and Labour after Laudato Si” in Cape Verde from 7-9 May 2019. The meeting was organized by UNIAPAC and ICYCW was represented by West African National Movement delegates from Senegal, Ivory Coast, Benin, Nigeria, Burkina Faso and Guinea Conakry.

ICYCW participated in the International Conference on the theme “Religions and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs):

Listening to the cry of the earth and of the poor”, Promoted by the Department for the Integral Human Development Service and by the Pontifical Council for Interreligious Dialogue, which was held  in the Vatican, at the New Synod Hall, from Thursday 7 to Saturday 9 March 2019.

The IS president joined with Marc the chairperson of the European Commission visited YCW Portugal on 23rd december 2018. There was sharing of ideas ond realities on both ICYCW and YCW portugal.
