Welcome Canada 08!

The Global Youth Leadership Conference is a full day programme which is designed to shed some light on the nature of citizenship for young people in an inter-connected world visa vis human rights issues.

The goal of the Youth Conference is to stimulate new thinking and new knowledge on the various ways in which young people and their transition to adulthood are affected by a range of global and transnational processes (economic, political, Conflict and peace, technological, cultural, legal, sexuality etc.) that affect their livelihoods, education, job opportunities, political aspirations, and identities.

The Youth Conference also aims to take an analytical and empirically driven perspective on these forces and look at the ways they are changing the conditions in which young people act and imagine their futures.

See you at york university!

Hope in seemingly hopeless situations
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

Most times, i talk about my personal story to draw and connect with real life situations, please check my bio for details, but the word 'hope' is certainly not blind optimism, but a firm believe in something not seen to come, or to actualize your one in a life time dream...for dreamers. so the question is , do you have a dream?, In seemingly hopeless situations, and can smile through tears of personal trials...

I do, and have come off age to tell you that it is overwhelmingly amazing, intimidating or incredibly inspiring to see your dreams come true.There would be, maybe but sure: troubles, conflicts in the search or pursuit of your dreams...but you have to keep going..Charles Dickson...did, after lots of trials to get Oliver twist published, Nelson Mandela (the living legend and former South Afrcan activist and president did, after lots of pains- taking trails to help liberate South Africa from Aparthied.

George Bush may have had a dream to put fear all over the world through his invasion in Iraq.and politics of appeasement... etc
I would like to hear the kind of dream you have and your stories as well in this episode...happy blogging...

Peace AND Conflict
Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

Do young people care about these divisive issues in this age? Is history really helping to heal wounds or BRING us down...? It is evident that some of us are living on past stories, full of hatred, racial slurs etc....despite how different we could be in all ramifications of life (sex,religion, politics, gender, etc) one thing is common and certain, that we can save one's life in any medical or moral form as a human being. So why can't we transcend and tolarate? Peace!

Am having a critical look at the USA politics, is amazing how the media has been doing their job ' reporting and filming' but i as well think that the fourth estate has a right to act and be part of a healing process and not join hands in left or right wing issues. We all in life would face opposition, new battles to fight and new obstacles to overcome. It's easy to get discouraged and think, and i think that the Media is not helping issues at all..."Why is this happening?"

Today's Global Realities!
Translations available in: English (original) | French

Am wondering if the young people can rise up to the challeng of taking the future of their life by refusing to go to war and begin to challenge conventional old political thoughts which is not dynamic but represive anyways! We need to get involved in any form of democractic setting at all levels in our community, state, federal etc. ..maybe called a 'lobbyist group' no, 'education gruop' of vibrant young people with a vision to deciding what we want for an effective change and not what they want...

We have ignored the process for a long time and the apathy is growing locally and globally which is the root cause of ou rproblem to secure our future in all ramifications.

Against this backdrop, we need to proactively beging to develope and strenghten an international network that will challenge and pass alternative foreign policies of the USA etc and the decietful MDG's of the UN to the World Leaders and more importantly to fix the ways of global affairs, structure a local constituent beyound ethnicity, religon, and gender. what do you think folks?
