about the project
Young activists are making a difference around the world. They are no longer passive consumers or learners - they get engaged in society and work for change. Sixty successful teenagers are meeting in London in January 2008 to share their experiences and develop their skills. They will choose six to go on to the WEF annual meeting at Davos, where they will take their case to the world leaders.Davos is not the end of the road. Over the following year, the sixty will take up their challenge.
