CWN Editor's Note: The John Paul II Foundation for Youth—the body of the Dicastery for Laity, Family and Life that organizes World Youth Days—is hosting a conference on June 19 to discuss “what can be concretely – and synergistically – done to promote Catholic youth ministry in the world,” in view of the upcoming 2027 World Youth Day in Seoul, South Korea.

Participants will also hear from two members of the World Youth Day Orchestra, who will play Portuguese, Italian, and Korean musical selections, as well as from Italian singer-songwriter Giovanni Caccamo.

Caccamo, described by the John Paul II Foundation for Youth as “the spokesman of his generation,” will discuss his Manifesto for Change, a project that has led to the publication of a book with a preface by Pope Francis.
