FUTURE GENERATIONS: Youth and Climate Change
Indigenous prophesies say their people hold the key the world needs to truly understand human interconnectedness to the Earth. Respect and inclusion of indigenous solutions are necessary if we hope to get back in balance and harmony with nature's laws. Sustainable development is to protect human viability, as the Earth will carry on with or without humans.
With this initiative, our goal is to promote greater opportunities for those in need. With access to the right resources, people can become empowered by their own abilities and gain the confidence to fulfill their potential.
The children of the world now carry the message of sustainability to their leaders in their unique homelands. Youth are the hope for our future, as they dream and act globally and locally to become the leading generation to safeguard Mother Earth.
"On behalf of the United Nations Environment Programme, I would like to express my sincere gratitude for your many contributions in making the "Summit of the Elders" a memorable success."
