where
schools
are
finding

a group of Banbury youth
who has benefited from the program so far. In
October the
Banbury
School
pupil
was
accompanied
by

Paris
where
he
was
an
observer
at
the
United
Nations
Educational,
Scientific
and
Cultural
Organization's
(UNESCO) International Youth Forum
(
论坛
).
The event
was held for young people from around the world,
to seek their views on
how the future
of youth and education should look. Kieran joined
several hundred
observers
mostly
in
their
20s
and
was
the
only
UK
school
pupil
to
attend
the
event.
Kieran thinks the trip was a life
changing experience.

what
to
make
of
it
but
when
we
got
there
we
didn't
stop,
it
was
amazing,
he
said,
We
went
to
three
or
four
hours
of
debates
each
day
and
then
did
something
cultural each afternoon.
The
main theme of the forum was how youth can drive
change in political and public
life. It
dealt with issues (

) such
as drug abuse, violence and unemployment.
Kieran said:
as

as
my
school
grades

I
was

in
August.
