“The 2025 Bangkok-Catholic Social Forum (CSF) was a powerful reminder of the vital role youth and faith-based organizations play in advancing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Dr. Victor Karunan’s keynote underscored the urgent need for civil society, especially the Catholic Church, to hold governments accountable while ensuring young people lead the way in social justice and environmental action. Alee’s inspiring words on interfaith cooperation and the fusion of faith and action deeply resonated with me. The panel discussions reinforced the importance of Catholic Social Teaching in shaping policies for justice and sustainability. The CSF affirmed that achieving the SDGs requires collaboration across generations, faiths, and sectors—and as young Catholics, we must be at the forefront of this mission.”
