About This Video
The road from poverty to the podium at the United Nations has been a long one for 11 youth leaders supported by Children International, a Kansas City-based humanitarian organization.
The teens from Latin America, India, the Philippines, Zambia and the United States live in extreme poverty but that didn't stop them from participating in the United Nations' 6th Annual Youth Assembly on August 5-7, 2009. The theme of the assembly was "Committing Youth Leadership to the Millennium Development Goals" and it was attended by over 700 youth from around the world.
