When brainstorming for a slogan, no other option embodied the values we wished to transmit as much as this one did. After the last two tumultuous years, the international community has finally begun the recovery process from COVID-19, largely due to active cooperation and solidarity between nations. There is still a long way to go in this arduous journey, but it is one we must take- and one we must take together. With “Waves of Change,” we wish to showcase the impact small acts of kindness, of bravery, of speaking for what you believe in may have, and how they may ripple into something much stronger that reverberates through entire communities. It is an example of what we wish to achieve with this conference, by empowering young people to stand up for themselves and become active members of society, capable of incentivizing change when needed.
