UNESCO's International Leadership Training Programme, 6 - 14 August 2010, USA The programme is organized based on a three-fold understanding that the "every new generation of human rights builds on the work of those who came before it." Secondly, in the interconnected world, there is likelihood of impact being created when actions take place in one part of the world and end up influencing other people in other regions; therefore, there is a necessity to create solidarity through a network in this regard. Thirdly, as future belongs to young leaders, it needs to be ensured that their efforts remain effective. Focus on young leaders can create long-term and dynamic impact for building the society in future. "Accordingly, the Forum will place premium on nurturing and developing young people for local and global leadership and building bridges and a network of solidarity, which promote the sharing of experiences and understanding of, and provide an impetus for, the empowerment of young leaders that will enable them to play a crucial and constructive role in the development of human rights in their communities and the world at large."
