International Forum, We, the Youth
International Forum “We, the Youth” (IFWY) is a global youth-led initiative co-organized by South Korea’s Munhwa Broadcasting Corporation (MBC) and the United Nations Research Institute for Social Development (UNRISD). Launched in 2025, the forum empowers young changemakers (ages 18–35) through participatory dialogues, idea labs, cultural events, and policy workshops. It fosters youth-driven solutions on sustainability, social justice, and innovation, with fully funded regional and global events in Africa, the Middle East, Asia-Pacific, Europe, Latin America, North America, and South Korea.
​
In 2025, over 27,000 youth from 121 countries from every continent, took part in IFWY. 150 youth were then elected to work together to represent their regions to co-author the Eunpyeong Declaration, a global policy framework set to be disseminated worldwide.
​
To this date, Tanner Evan Bergsma actively disseminated the declaration across transnational initiatives.

Global Youth Sustainability Council
The Global Youth Sustainability Council was co-authored by Tanner Evan Bergsma and other international IFWY Delegates to help disseminate the Eunpyeong Declaration.
​
Currently, 14 members across the world have come together to equally promote the declaration in a council with horizontal leadership. The councils goal is to uplift youth voices internationally with promoting everyone. Youth who join become global voices in social change.
