A group of young people from around the world, selected through the British Council's global network, is challenging leaders on what they perceive as the most pressing issues that the next generation faces.
1) What issues are today's youth most worried about?
2) What critical long-term global issues for their future as responsible members of society does the younger generation feel that today's leaders need to address?
3) What can be done to make education a basic right to enable future generations to have the skills they need to address the challenges they will face?
