I think that these days are very important to have Dialogue Caf

in Cairo because we need to listen to others as much as we need our

voices as Egyptian youth to be heard.

If I had to choose one word to describe my experience as a UNAOC

I understood the true meaning of diversity and intercultural dialogue

after meeting together with participants from 44 countries at the

UNAOC summer school. It was the best experience of my life.

- Ganeswar Sahoo,India

It is amazing to see how these young film makers create these

videos. I learned a lot from different cultures and social issues in

various nations.

- Renzo Devia,PLURAL+ 2011 International Jury, Colombia

We are living in an age when people are urgently needed to be heard

and are finding new ways to be heard. And the UNAOC projects

represent that, in the highest achievement and the highest ingenuity

using technologies and specially using the heart and the mind. They

are exceptional and inspiring initiatives.

- Professor Jeffrey Sachs,Director of the Earth Institute at Columbia University,
