We were honoured to have a hearty chat with Ms. Henrietta Fore, Executive Director of UNICEF, on Friday after her inspiring calling in Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy.
We had so much in common, in term of goals and initiatives. on how we can use innovation to change the lives of millions of young people worldwide.
Her talk surrounds young people today live in a world of unlimited potential. A world of mass connectivity, enhanced mobility and unprecedented technological progress. With education, skills and opportunities that are relevant to their lives and future employment, more than 1.8 billion young men and women will be poised to make the most of their potential and contribute to the peace and prosperity of their families and communities. But young people throughout the world are also sounding the alarm. They’re telling us that they cannot see a better future for themselves because they’re not receiving the ladders of opportunity that they need to build this future.
