Each group can find its own strengths and weaknesses in responding to these natural disasters and humanitarian crises. Moreover, the processes which are being followed in this internationally funded volunteer camp for young leaders are of a theoretical as well as practical nature and include simulative sessions and workshops.

The International Volunteer forum for Young and emerging leaders shows the interest of many people to participate in these activities for multiple reasons such as to eradicate poverty, improve basic health conditions, empower people with education and employment, provide people with safe drinking water, cope with environmental problems and so many other reasons that are imperative to bring a positive change in the society. In this ICYF Volunteer opportunity, there are many tasks that are being designed to equip the young leader with the skills that lead to growth and sustainable development.

The ICYF 2023 Volunteer Camp has a distinctive purpose for this very specific year which is to raise awareness among the youth of the world regarding the new emerging humanitarian crises and challenges within the OIC geography.
