International Youth Festival – A lively celebration of the YCW centenary organized by KAJ (YCW Flanders)
The world is going through a dramatic period marked by deep tensions that are affecting all of humanity. We are facing a combination of multiple and interdependent global crises. These situations have a particularly strong impact on the lives of young people. More than ever, young people need spaces to express themselves, come together, share their hopes, and discover, through the actions of other young people, signs of a future and of transformation.
It is in this context that the KAJ (YCW Flanders), as part of the celebrations of the centenary of the YCW, took the initiative to organize an international and intercultural youth festival, which took place in Belgium on May 2-3, 2025. The Bautershof estate in Sint-Truiden was the exclusive venue chosen to host this celebration.
