Leveraging Technology :
With its focus on the need for better global leadership, the WCP uses technology to create vessels for mutual leadership. WCP knows how to connect leaders across time zones and languages. Children with the support of adult allies meet virtually through Zoom and other platforms to discuss societal challenges, co-create proposals, and decide important issues. One example is the WCP’s side event at the UN 2024 ECOSOC Youth Forum. See Item 5 on the official UN website documenting the event, including about 400 online participants.
Later in 2024 the WCP collected and consolidated opinions of 3000+ children from Australia, Austria, Brazil, Cameroon, India, Nigeria, Poland, South Korea, the United Kingdom, and the United States and convened a Summit of the Children. The Summit paralleled the United Nations Summit of the Future. Eighty representatives attended the Summit of the Children and adopted by consent a WORLD CHILDREN’S PARLIAMENT DECLARATION ON FUTURE GENERATIONS.
