They will engage with youth representatives during panel discussions moderated by Lewis Dabney, Executive Director of The Key Bridge Foundation and international conflict resolution expert, and meet with youth attendees in small breakout groups, which will also feature creative activities. KidSpirit is a nonprofit magazine and community by and for 11- to 17-year-olds to exchange ideas on meaningful topics in an inclusive spirit. Its mission is to promote mutual understanding among teenagers of all backgrounds and support their development into world citizens with strong inner grounding. Through a unique collaborative editing process, an international network of editors work together to decide on quarterly themes and create thought-provoking articles, poetry, art, and video. With Editorial Boards across the United States and in Australia, China, Ghana, India, Jordan, Liberia, Pakistan, Paraguay, Singapore, South Africa, Spain, Taiwan, Ukraine, the United Kingdom, and Uruguay, KidSpirit empowers teens to share their voices in conversations that rarely include a crucial youth perspective. The annual Global Summit provides an opportunity for youth from every part of KidSpirit's international community to meet face-to-face and build bridges of understanding with peers they would otherwise never know.
