Dear Youth of the World Global Postcard Writing Contest

✨ About the Contest

The “Dear Youth of the World” Global Postcard Writing Contest 2025 is a global initiative organized on the occasion of International Youth Day. It invites individuals from all regions and walks of life to contribute messages of hope, belief, and encouragement to the youth across the world.

This campaign aims to amplify messages of resilience, creativity, justice, and shared humanity, fostering a global space for mutual understanding, cultural dialogue, and mentorship through the written word. Participants are encouraged to compose a short postcard message beginning with the phrase “Dear Youth of the World”, reflecting on the challenges and opportunities youth face today.

Organized by Udaan Youth Club (UYC), an award-winning youth-led organization affiliated with MYBharat, the contest builds upon the success of last year’s “Dear Mother Nature” campaign. It seeks to unite voices across generations, professions, and geographies, empowering youth to lead positive transformation.
