The IYF hopes to increase awareness of the current political, social and environmental situation in Iraq and in this way increase interest and aid. The youth of today will be tomorrow’s leaders, and so play an essential role in achieving a stable and prosperous Iraq. By understanding each others differences and valuing what we have in common, we can build a richer multiethnic, multicultural Iraq. We encourage Iraqi youth to put aside their differences and remember what unites them; our beloved Iraq.
