Recently, we have seen death and destruction flashed into our television screens, in our newspapers and across the airwaves. War, earthquakes, terrorism all have reeked havoc on the world's populations - particularly those in low income nations - the most fragile, the most vulnerable again seem to be hardest hit. For some it may feel like we are living in a world out-of-control - fear and uncertainty abound. But do we have to sit back and take the world that others construct for us? Around the world we also hear the stories of courageous individuals and communities who are endeavouring to design a future for all that is based on the principles of equity and humanity - is the world that you would like to be in?
My question to you as the young people of the world is:
What kind of future do you want?
