Welcome Message

"You must be the change you wish to see in the world." When Indian political visionary Mahatma Gandhi spoke these words, I doubt very much that he envisioned a future United Nations OnLine - an organization above the realm of physical space that exists solely on a cyberplane, with individuals the world over uniting to solve pertinent problems.

And yet, despite Gandhi's human inability to see the future, his words are perhaps more relevant today to this community than ever before. Those of us who gather here in this General Assembly have a unique and marvellous opportunity - to shape the world before such a time as our elders officially allocate us the responsibility. With new resources such as the Internet to bind the global village together and give us these fantastic chances, we must be the change that we wish to see in the world. We need to be today's visionaries and tomorrow's great leaders. For in the not too distant future, the divergent solutions that we develop today will be official policy, directly affecting countless millions.

I am tremendously excited about the possibilities that lie ahead for this General Assembly and for the international youth movement in general. We, like never before, can have a fundamental impact on our global brothers and sisters. We can change the world.

Please join me on this extraordinary journey to tomorrow here in the UNOL General Assembly.

In peace and goodwill,

Ian Beacock
President of the General Assembly
