WHY THE GLOBAL PEACE FAIR ?
       (or the GPF)
 Young people need to understand that being true
 “global citizens” is not limited to United Nations
 costumes and having the most number of facebook
 friends. Global Citizens are concerned and
 proactive citizens of a world that is growing
 smaller and smaller everyday. They must realize
 that beyond the pageantry and festivals around the
 world, there are challenges that need to be met and
 overcome, and their youthful idealism, energy and
 creativity might just be what the world’s most
 troubled nations need.

 encouraged to use the World Bank site as a point of
