Humanity faces daunting challenges that will affect the future prospects for life on the planet. Global climate change, nuclear proliferation, poverty and other key issues are shaping the future for people today and for generations to come. 2015 is a pivotal year for the United Nations and the global community to take action on these issues! What prospects do children born today face around the world? What is required to ensure a world fit for children? How can the international community strengthen its commitment to children’s welfare, well-being, and life opportunities around the world? What can citizens do to take action on these issues?                  

Join  us for a special seminar to learn about these challenges and what steps you can take to improve the lives of children today and for the future!
