33. Recent Survey - NECC
14% only - agreed with the statement “I think
the world is becoming a better place”.
34% - China
26% - Taiwan
26% - India
50% - USA
Lower - Mexico & France
Isn’t much optimism about the world our
students/children are going into.
34. Final Though ?
“If young people were actively
engaged in all aspects of society,
and thought of themselves as
community leaders, problem
solvers, role models mentors and
key stake-holders, how would the
world change?”
