Thanks a lot Elizabeth,
At the moment,i am putting together team that will work on a documentary showcasing young people who are committed to developing their communities(this is action plan i decided to implement on coming back from the Jane Goodall Global Youth Summit in Florida april this year) ...u can see some of them on www.youthactors.ning.com.

I am also raising funds to attend this year's Youth Assembly at the UN organized by Friendship Ambassadors Foundation http://faf.org/programs/unyouthassembly/ya_home.htm

Both of them mean so much to me at this point in my life as a young change agent.And i would sincerely appreciate any support to pull them off.

How's Washington? I hope to visit there soon!!!

Regards
Timothy

Profile Information

What motivated you (or your organization) to become involved in peace and conflict resolution?
I'm motivated to support ttrade justice because of the person-to-person connections we have through commerce. I think about why my family line came to be in this country and I know that economic hardship is exactly what my great-grandparents left Ireland to overcome. Unfortunately, many people living in poverty around the world can't afford to migrate elsewhere for opportunity. Not all people can afford to sell a cow to obtain the money for a ticket out, as the mother of my great-grand father did. However, with all that we know about trade and development, we can help people develop their own communities. Opportunity awaits.
Please feel free to provide a short bio about yourself or the work of your organization (no more than 3 paragraphs)
My interest in trade justice was inspired by a conference held by Americans for Informed Democracy. I was specifically introduced to the the Fair Trade Movement and the Ten Thousand Villages chain. I volunteered as a Sales Associate at the New Haven, CT, store until I moved to DC in October 2005. In November 2006, I launched DC Make Trade Fair!, which was inspired by other national coalitions. I have a bachelor's degree in journalism from the University of Connecticut and have begun to gain experience in public relations with the non-profit sector. In the future, I will continue my eductaion in international commerce and policy, as I develop my skills to make a career as a Freelance, Ethical Marketing Consultant.
