We Can Work Together For

Recognizing That Sustainable Development, Democracy And Peace Are Indivisible Is An Idea Whose Time Has Come... Today We Are Faced With A Challenge That Calls For A Shift In Our Thinking, So That Humanity Stops Threatening Its Life-support System. We Are Called To Assist The Earth To Heal Her Wounds And In The Process Heal Our Own - Indeed, To Embrace The Whole Of Creation In All Its Diversity, Beauty And Wonder.

I Have Seen A Lot Of Men, For Example, Who Will Make A Will And Include Their Daughters Whether They Are Married Or Not. And Perhaps The Greatest Change Of Attitude Is That Today, At Least In Kenya, If You Don't Send Your Child To School - Unless It's A Matter Of Poverty Or Religion, And It Is Not That There No Schools - Then People Wonder, "why The Hell Don't You Send Your Children To School?" Now That's A Very Big Jump From When I Was Going To School And Educating Girls Was An Exception To The Rule.

In The Course Of History, There Comes A Time When Humanity Is Called To Shift To A New Level Of Consciousness, To Reach A Higher Moral Ground. A Time When We Have To Shed Our Fear And Give Hope To Each Other. That Time Is Now.

It Is Very Important For Young People Not To Be Afraid Of Engaging In Areas That Are Not Common To The Youth. Get Involved In Local Activities, Get Involved In Local Initiatives, Be Involved In Leadership Positions Because You Can’t Learn Unless You Are Involved. And If You Make Mistakes That Is Alright Too Because We All Make Mistakes And We Learn From Those Mistakes. You Gain Confidence From Learning, Failing And Rising Again.
