What One Can Do...
MDG resources for
children, youth and young adults
The world is connected like never before ... and children, youth and young adults have grown up with that connectivity and have a natural facility for global relationships that other generations have to learn. Because of this, the Millennial Generation is uniquely suited to LEAD this movement of global reconciliation.
If you're a child, youth or young adult and reading this, let your imagination run wild! Use the resources we have ... send us the resources we don't that you're using ... and if there's something you wish was here but wasn't, let us know and we'll try to find it. And be sure and join our Facebook group and get connected to other young Episcopalians around the Church who are connecting and collabroating for the Millennium Development Goals.
If you're a youth leader or "older folk" and reading this, let your imagination run wild, too ... but remember that the best way to get young people on fire about the MDGs is to let their creativity carry the day. Give them the information and then let their creativity decide where to go next. Give them control over a budgetary line item. Let them preach and do educational presentations in your congregation. Their energy and passion will be contagious!
