This sounds like a great idea! I would love to be a part of it in some way.<br />
<br />
I've always thought that sometimes people just need the right mentors and support behind them to succeed and this could really fill in that gap in developing countries.

That is the difficult part of the idea and I will probably plan it out a little further so that the concept stands as an EVOKATION until May 12th.<br />
I think it would be easiest as a "grass-root movement" webpage. Means everybody could upload videos or other media. But that was just an idea I had while reading this discussion. Of course everybody is welcome to develop it with me together as this is the goal of this thread and of evoke.

I saw a video lately where Afghan children talked about their dreams. It was quite inspiring and also eye opening when a little kid says: "I have no dreams" or "My dream is not to sell gums anymore"<br/>
Even though we do know that the standard of living is not very high there, it can still be shocking to see how few dreams people have in those countries.<br/>
So an idea could be to collect the dreams of people in various countries and bring them together on a webpage so that people can see how different the lifes of people can be.<br/>
I think if that could be made possible it could inspire a lot of people to act or at least think.</div>

Raymond, I was thinking the same thing. How can we get youth to start sharing with us what is going on in their world. Learning from best practices will be important.<br />

There are probably currently at least 100 projects dealing with youth in Africa already, dealing with the question of how to get them to empower themselves. Do we know of any best practices? Do we have any prime examples which we would like to replicate?<br/> <br/>
I am thinking that in order to break out, the youth can use video as one tool. Video to share their world with the world. Share ideas, give input and receive feedback.<br/>

I definitely agree. I think it would be much easier to collaborate if we could break the problem down into smaller pieces and have people work on those, as opposed to trying to tackle the entire problem all at once.<br />

I hope I'm not missing a comment made elsewhere in the thread, but if we're going to do a collaborative project, might it be worth picking a region or specific country within Africa to help focus our efforts? I've made a <a href="http://www.urgentevoke.com/forum/topics/which-country-to-focus-on">discussion thread</a> talking about the countries I think might be best, but I'm wondering what you guys' thoughts are as well.
