2019 Y7 Call to Action

The Young Diplomats of Canada delegation, Melanie Rodriguez, Head Delegate, Anjum Sultana, Communications Coordinator, Ross Anthony McDonach, and Marissa Fortune  represented #Canada at the Y7 France Summit in Paris, France.

For one week, 44 delegates representing youth from the African Union, Canada, European Union, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States of America came together to develop recommendations for a #FairFuture in the lead up to the G7 Summit in Biarritz for France's G7 Presidency. In the face of growing resistance to multi-lateralism, the Y7 continues to demonstrate the importance of working in global partnerships to address the common challenges facing our world.

The Y7 also launched an extraordinary call to action encouraging immediate action on the deteriorating human rights situation in Sudan.

As the lead organizer for the 2018 Youth 7, YDC is proud to see momentum continued into 2019. We remain committed to supporting further youth integration within the G7 in 2020 and beyond!
