From July 15th to 17th, the 2025 World Youth Development Forum (WYDF), themed "Unleash Youth Potential for Global Development," was held in Suzhou, Jiangsu Province. Co-hosted by the All-China Youth Federation, the United Nations in China, and the World Youth Development Forum Organizing Committee, the forum gathered approximately 500 participants, including ministers of youth affairs, heads of youth organizations, youth leaders, and key youth project leaders from over 100 countries and 17 international organizations. Three youth representatives from CREC attended the forum.

Zhao Jianyu, as a representative of young Chinese enterprises, was interviewed by Suzhou Broadcasting System. He highlighted the contributions of CREC and other Chinese companies to the high-quality joint construction of the Belt and Road Initiative and shared vivid cases of how young people from Chinese enterprises and the global youth are collaborating to advance global development. Danny Ooi Cheong Yeung talked about his growth journey since joining CREC, shared the positive changes brought by his project to the local community, and expressed his willingness to contribute to China-Malaysia friendship through concrete actions. Viktor Balazsin, one of the youth representatives from 10 countries, read out the "International Youth Initiative: Expanding Youth Potential and Supporting Global Development" at the opening ceremony, calling on young people worldwide to implement the initiative through concrete actions and inject youthful vitality into global development and progress.
