Guildford 2008
Hi all.
I hope those who've been on holiday have been having a blast, if you haven't been on holiday thnk of it this way; you keep the economy going, in whatever way you're contributing
. I've been reading a lot of the threads and comments that people have been putting up and wow! the amount of discussion and debate we have going on makes me sooo much more excited about Guildford and Davos!
Clearly we all have a lot to say. As you might have noticed by now, I always like to pull things together and sort of create a focus
. So this time, I'm asking/challenging (whatever turns you on
) you to start making a list of objectives you'd like to achieve at Guildford - yes, all participants are bringing something to the table, hence they were selected, however, now that you've been chatting to some of them or reading what they have to say, what other things do you think you can get out of the conference/forum? start thinking of key issues in you community/country/continent that you'd like to address and then come share ideas and challenges with other partcipants so that we can find innovative and effective solutions to those challenges. Remember this conference/forum is about us as young people, finding practical and effective solutions to challenges in our communities. As much as we have the power to, and can influence governments policies, we know how long that takes to get implemented in most countries . So, it's about you baby
!
Cheers for now.
