In the coming week, between February 22 and March 1, WFDY and several of its member organizations will once again be visiting Palestine. This visit aims to contact with the suffering youth of the occupied lands of Palestine, in Ramallah, Jenin and Nablus, expressing the anti-imperialist youth’s solidarity towards the brave struggle that the Palestinian youth faces everyday, not only in the sieged, bombed and destroyed Gaza, but all over the Palestinian territories.







At the same time WFDY will visit Lebanon, Syria, and Jordan, with the purpose of meeting the Palestinian people that live in Refugee Camps, WFDY wants to express once again the solidarity with all Palestinian people who can not  live in their own country, occupied by Israel. Several meetings will be held in that tree countries, with young people, as well as seminars and other events. This visit is a support to the program inside Palestine, the most important program, and a step further to know how the Palestinian people live. All  WFDY’s Member and Friends organization of that region are working now in order to prepare the programs.

The World Federation of Democratic youth, alongside with its member and friend organizations, has followed with much attention all the process surrounding the referendum held in the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, which has lead to a clear victory for the forces standing by the fellow president Hugo Chávez, as new demonstration of support towards the leader of the revolution and of consolidation of Bolivarian Revolution and its impacts in all Latin America.

The last ten years, have allowed to the Venezuelan people to achieve important social developments, putting all the resources of the country working for the poorest people who never had anything, and at the same time to become one example for all Latin America and all progressive forces of the world, for its decision to build a better future, in which the Venezuelan youth has had the decisive role, despite all the media manipulation that has been targeting all universities’ students, which we energetically reject and condemn.

WFDY warmly greets the fellow President Hugo Chávez, the youth and people of Venezuela, whose commitment to the its Revolution, in name of all its member and friend organizations, calls upon all the young progressive people of the world to celebrate this victory of a people who is more and more an example for all the progressive youth of the planet that to build a better world is possible.
