Young people around the planet want to create a world that works for all. In cities everywhere young people are beginning to gather together weekly and/or monthly. They come from many different organizations and make new friendships building relationships across many new networks.
The vision is a globally cohesive youth movement that reaches critical mass and is able to demand an alternative - such as the democratization of the United Nations or global boycott of an irresponsbile group.
