- 10 Stories the World Should Hear More About
- Gandhi once said, "We must be the change we wish to see in the world." Well, here's your chance. The UN has assembled what it feels are "10 Stories the World Should Hear More About," and we encourage you to read them and spread the word. By focusing on current crises that receive little or no media attention, this site makes a convincing case that these are issues that need your attention. A broad range of challenges is highlighted, including the African AIDS crisis and the threat of overfishing on the environment. And while it's obvious that no easy solutions exist, if you simply discuss what you've read, you're already part of the change. -
