Half the world’s population is under age thirty, and young people are emerging as a powerful force for peace in a world marred by conflict and injustice.
On Sunday
#PeaceDay, a group of inspiring young leaders joined UN Global Communications chief melissarfleming, Mary Robinson of theelders_org and unyouthaffairs chief paullierfelipe for an intergenerational peace circle.
At the centre of the discussion was the importance of working together for a more peaceful, just and sustainable future.
