Your UNICEF contributions used to encourage children to promote the greatest scientific fraud in history?

UNICEF - Zambia - Media initiative brings Zambian youth to the front-line of climate crisis
Daniel and Tendai were delegates at UNICEF’s second Zambian Children’s Climate Conference, held recently in Lusaka, the country’s capital. More than 90 Zambian Climate Ambassadors under 18 years of age from almost every province in the country attended the conference – and sharpened their advocacy skills. Tackling issues that ranged from carbon footprints to global warming, Zambia’s young people discussed topics that will affect their lives and shared their visions of change for the future.

Working with the non-governmental organization and UNICEF partner Children’s Radio Foundation, 16 of the young conference delegates formed part of the press crew that reported on the Zambian Children’s Climate Conference. Using audio recorders, video, cameras and blogs, the young reporters were trained to capture the experiences of Zambian youth with issues such as climate change and HIV and AIDS.
