Over a thousand young individuals across the Asia-Pacific region took took part in an APYN activity called APYN Meet on MDGS that aimed to tackle the link between the Millennium Development Goals(MDGs) and Human Rights last 17-19 September 2010.
Young activists from the region shared their views on MDGs and discussed with fellow youth why Human Rights need to be included in the MDGs and how to make sure Human Rights sit on the very core of one of the most important global plans to end poverty as they answered five important questions about the MDGs:
1. What can you buy with $US 1.25 (a day) in your hometown?
2. Please list the MDGs in order of importance to you
3. Which human rights in the UDHR are NOT covered by the MDGs
4. If you were the leader of your country, how would you include human rights in the MDGs?
5. What is one thing you can do to make the MDGs real?
The campaign also aimed to provide a tool which can be used by youth across the region to continue their human rights work for the realization of the MDGs. As such, the APYN proudly presents these two videos created by and for the youth: More Than One Twenty Five and Think About. These videos reflect youth views on MDGs and Human Rights solicited during the Meet on MDGs!
More Human Rights = Less Poverty!
