The idea behind the “World I Want to See…” is to give young people a “place” for expressing their hopes for the world. The original idea was to create a physical wall we could write on but because of Covid-19 we decided to make our “wall” an online forum where we could post our statements. Young people are often left out of conversations regarding global warming, politics, human rights, disease and many other important issues. We are inheriting this planet and we should have an opportunity to state what matters to us.
THE WORLD I WANT TO SEE is united, differences are celebrated, we think about each other when we make choices and tackle the world’s challenges together, as a global community.
