AFI CHANGEMAKERS
AFI Changemakers at the United Nations is a young leaders (18-30) platform sponsored by Ariel Foundation International. AFI Changemakers from across the globe connect, collaborate and contribute to the work activities of the United Nations.
AFI Changemakers are committed to strengthening the voice of youth in international development and human rights at a national, international and particularly a United Nations level. The first two AFI Changemakers Summits, held at the Palais des Nations in Geneva, in December 2013 and December 2014 focused upon the “Right to Development”, while in February 2015, the AFI Changemakers held a summit upon the “Right to Health and Access to Medicines” with the UN Social Forum. Upcoming events include participation in the World Health Assembly in May 2015.
