David Beckham urges children to use Junior 8 Summit to make their voices heard
LONDON, United Kingdom, 20 March 2008 – UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador David Beckham has called on young people to take part in UNICEF’s Junior 8 Summit, a young person’s version of the annual G8 meeting of world leaders. Beckham called on 13- to 17-year-olds in G8 nations to enter the competition for a chance to represent their countries at the J8 Summit in Japan.
The J8 will provide young people with a platform to speak out about the global issues that are important to them, and to voice their concerns to the world. The winning team chosen from each G8 nation will present a communiqué of global proposals to the G8, jointly written by the J8 delegation.
