state to know if they're ready and while some progress has been made no country is on track to meet all of the goals our session today is a decade to deliver the lord set the stage for us what does our world's look like in 10 years if we do not take dramatic action now. i think it will be a more stressed world it will be a world where if you do not believe in our capacity to work together to solve these problems we will increasingly turn against each other that maybe sometimes for geographical or political reasons but you know just look at the debate right now on are we going to act together on climate change or are we going to have to change

our global trade system to the point where those countries who are not coming along in going towards a low carbon economy will in future have to pay tariffs in order to import goods into another part of the world that is acting on this issue so i think the s.t.g. is the sustainable development goals should 1st and foremost be understood as an extraordinary collective view of the future of the greatest risks we face and therefore also the goals we need to set ourselves to address them that's the 17 goals but much more important perhaps in here are some of the lessons from the recent past leave no one behind it's a very easy phrase to side but just think for a moment the evening news last year riots people stepping out on the streets dissatisfaction unfairness inequality those are the drivers that are also dividing us in our own society so this geez i'm not just a set of lofty goals they're actually a risk map of the world and they are a proposition how to address them but young people around the world have to say you

mentioned people out on the streets we saw for young people out on the streets this past september of course at the climate strikes are they say that it's not enough that there is certainly not enough progress want to hear out i'll turn to you now because you're climate activists you're of the generation that is currently protesting you're also you know you're doing grass roots activism trying to organize local communities for climate action have you been able to have the kind of impact that you would like to think you kitty for having me and so that in a huge campaign called save our forests. that was very successful the money to push the government to pools. have esteem of forests of trees in community and public forests however the village where i come from was very angry and the tunde against . and they were justified to do about because they had to can away their only source of income. without giving them an alternative and that pushed me to realize

that i was going through this the wrong way and i feel that the world needs to rethink yes it's important that you put pressure we start asking governments and organizations to rethink the old ways of doing things but we also need to think about the how i feel that way how are we going to transition has been missing in the entire conversation so this is my village feeling the heat of the ban on harvesting of lot of trees but this is a scene we have the international organization big organizations are to do business because of little of the day the primary goal of in your going to be business is to make profits but how do we transition from fossil fuels to a more sustainable product and service that is something that has actually been up for debate here about what the primary responsibility of a corporation should they will get about a little bit later in our program but mohamed i'd like to turn to you 1st so you can tell us a little bit more about your story because you're very much fighting for refugee

rights for education you have a school actually that you started in lebanon and it's an initiative which has really been informed by your own personal experience your syrian refugee yourself 1st 11 and now you're in suite and tell us more well as you all known 2011 a revolution happened in syria. my parents had to take part of the protest is the protest where for the future of the children they were to make syria a place where we can actually develop and improve ourselves. to that led to my mom getting arrested twice and then get death threats so we had to flee the country and when we arrive to lebanon which is a neighboring country to syria i couldn't go to school for almost 3 years. so i decided to set one for myself. now the school teaches around $740.00 students every 6 months and we've been running for a run 5 years so we graduated around $7000.00 participants including

women men and children the women and men we work with are mainly the mothers and now i live in sweden and i took the mission of trying to bring back the focus on certain issues that in a sense has been forgotten by the public because activism is like anything else as a trend. and we do realize as people who come from those backgrounds that climate change is important because we live the impacts of it every day but we need to bring back the focus on certain issues like education to for a for food for us to lift those and such regions up so they can start caring about climate change education s e g 3 we're going to turn now also to education for we're going to turn out s e g 3 which is health and wellbeing. to johnson and johnson the world's largest health care company you're obviously an incredibly influential position in order to

make progress in this area so tell us what you're doing. will be tried to translate to good signs and good science and technology into real up occasions for progress saying help in the world and so today there's the norm is progress in signs and technology to solve the most important diseases in the world. we have made enormous progress over the last so many years infectious diseases reflect scenes in the collective tropical diseases with new medicines in child care that with that with much better care and so progress that that progress should continue but on the other hand the challenge of the new diseases which now become almost equal everywhere in the world is like mental held dementia diabetes is. healthy surgery is essential surgery all those. that they can all of you exist we need to translate it in order to make you the village will do as many as possible people who will for the whole day will be told is the most important factor in well

being and we have to make sure we use the best technology in the world to make that happen and the big question that we asked at the beginning of the session is is the world on track to deliver those sustainable development goals and just like to check with the team to see if we perhaps have some results on that i'm not saying them at the moment but in the meantime i'll turn to you and ask you. about some of the challenges you know perhaps we can we can have an open and honest conversation about this because the reality is as follows i mean when it comes to climate biodiversity these trends are moving backward are you worried that we're not going to get there. absolutely and i think this is why you know also at the united nations we continuously try to provide the world with a score card and a way to monitor progress because clearly. in one sense we are not getting there if you take everybody on the planet together but it's also important to recognize

where we are getting there and many countries many communities on many goals are actually progressing and that's why i think it is important to not take the collective failure to move fast enough at the moment as a reason not to believe that this can work on the other hand and this is what we see also here at the world economic forum every year too many for too long have simply held on to yesterday's economy because it actually serves some very well but what it has done is it has prevented tomorrow's economy from emerging from being financed from being put in the hands of those who actually have the most to benefit from it so much of what we also are discussing we talk about climate change or access to health. is essentially inequality and this is why i think we are in some ways at a point where people are now questioning the whole concept of globalization you know as human beings we will always trade with each other i think 2 to argue that we would step away from a notion that we belong to planet earth in which many people do things with each other it would be

a strange thing to do at the beginning of the 21st century but the rules of the game are simply leaving too many people out and so back to when she was found i think without a mother how so yesterday's should not be i think question because they are in a sense an expression of wisdom they're not the answer to everything the question is how do we actually make it happen this is a very different time including in terms of opportunities again here in davos we learned a lot from the frontiers of technology the digital economy that's emerging extraordinary opportunities for inclusion but if you don't make the right choices about how to use it it could actually amplify inequalities so this is you know human history repeats itself and here we are beginning the 21st century. well how many would you like to respond to that i mean what do you think is most important when it comes to achieving a sustainable development. i mean we've always talked back back in the refugee camps in the school that having 17 goals turns into more of a wish list rather than goals and what we what we were and what we usually discuss

on the streets because that's where i was born that's where i was raised that's where my education from of the streets is if you have a goal which is 17 goals was a lot a lot of goals you need to start prioritizing some of them at the problem is if we continue treating those goals as depending on what's trending on the activism like for example nowadays climate change won't be able to go anywhere because if we're doing we're going to discuss climate change because it's the biggest issue on the world economic forum have betting on faces on it since we came here which is important issue and that we've been impacted by in the middle east and i do recognize it as going to affect every everyone so we need to work on it but the problem is if the focus is so much on that specific issue on other issues not by united nations but by other actors or forgotten like education like inequality like health if those other issues are forgotten the rest of the world wouldn't be able to care about climate change wouldn't be able to join the fight for climate change and we're seeing this happening i was in lebanon on. a couple months ago and i'm in

contact with my fellow in lebanon in mexico and south africa and everywhere and we talk about them and they do care about climate change but they're not doing anything about it and they tell me it's not our problem so if you have a whole region who's saying climate is not their problems i think this is an issue and when i when i asked the question the answer is usually we're not there yet we're not we can't do anything about climate change yet because we don't have school because don't have food on our tables because we don't have good health so we need to stop treating activism as a trend because it's not a trend it's not because someone got famous we need to start focusing on that specific issue people are on the streets struggling and dying every day i came here last last words i came here there is a plenty of sessions most sessions or about climate change which is fascinating as again we support climate change but there is 0 sessions about yemen it's one of the biggest unitarian issues now with a people are dying because of hunger and there is 0 sessions about it there is 0

sessions about the social movements are happening in a lot of the world like in hong kong like in india like in lebanon like in iraq what's going on we're not focused we can focus and trends because we can skim to need to be self centered in europe and in the u.s. does there is the rest of the world and we come from the rest of the world. injury which i like to am. is a very fundamental point of meeting the basic needs of people before we can talk of climate change we need to realize that all the all these things are intertwined eve of our farms where farm produce is destroyed for instance there was flooding in kenya then we will not have food security so but the primary monday to every government is to ensure that the people prove and protect the lives of the people that's among the top government and government has feel that is why people are on the street that's why we are in the campaign to save our forest because there was most of destruction of our forests so governments have failed on their mind it and

i want to speak for the good global south especially yes we are the least of meters but then we also have a role to play in terms of creating strong polices you know the truth is that if there is money to be made legally somebody is going to make money out of it i also feel biden may see the lack of wheel to move forward with an organization or a company like coca-cola comes out and says that we are not going to buy and one single use plastic because people said that they should remain i think it's it's just wrong it come from your o.b. where when it rains it floods and then there are times when children spend the night in school buses because the sea or systems are clogged by p.t. bottles and their photos even on the internet if you were to google you will find it go to google bottle plastic bottles and floods in a row you will see there in the thousands so when we say we're going all willing to

face out who want to go for the easy way out i question our intention and i think the word for the decade because we know what we ought to do but we're not doing i feel for me the word for the decade should be intentionality because we know that all these things are intertwined look at what is happening in australia and it is directly linked to what is up. new stuff because you know the fires of the flooding there interlinked through indian ocean. paul are companies taking the easy way out as well to hit just mentioned i mean talk to us because if you're in the world economic forum stakeholder capitalism is certainly a very top at this here it seems to be on the lips of every single c.e.o. but is it really happening and does it have the potential to happen in a way that is meaningful and that can exact change and progress toward best use. individual as a company these and we as a restaurant world we have to do much more much faster but. as a health care person i see optimism and i want to be optimistic on what has been

achieved over the last few years and going forward if you look look at child mortality in africa and in the world has dramatically do decreased with marginalizing the use of fox seems to prevent disease. the child mortality in burkhauser mother decreased because of training and new types of ways of caring from all over so the progress is there what we need to is a strong partnership between those who develop technologies those who are bringing the technology is to the world but also those who implement and i heard it occasion i think we need many more health care workers in the front lines to be able to work with people we need to do we need to partnership with the countries to bring you technologies but also make them very effective in getting really bad and you have been very effective with this new technology i just want to highlight one particular point as for example your tuberculosis treatment has has received

a lot of accolades but it's been criticized for its pricing. can you do more i mean can you make a commitment here to do more for example we do a huge commitment to make sure that every person in the world get access in the. in the last 34 years we treat more than a 180000 bees and with the r t b we have a huge implementation organization in the world doing that. with countries company organization we donate and so what we do is donation now on the old hand there are countries and the heart of governments in the world who have ability to pay and so it's all be donations because it has to be a sustainable world and the same for the h.l.v. medicines or the very low prize it's an industry to produce today thousands of tons of new medicines that you need the huge industrial capacity to continue to do that so it was small amounts of money but at the same time it is makes it sustainable if

something is a donation it's not sustainable and so we have to work with with all the partners involved to make sure that everyone who needs it get access in the next up to board so you've highlighted some of the complexities when it comes to achieving the sh for the perspective of business and i him i'd like to turn to you now and ask you about those complexities from the perspective of politics because young people around the world are calling for no compromise that is really clear. what is possible right now when we look at the limitations of politics. man i offer perhaps an interpretation of that no compromise i think our young people are actually extremely wise in savvy people their call for no compromise is a judgment on the very bad compromises that they have been sold over the years so i think what they're saying is no more of that kind of compromise i think when i listen to young people today where they were engaged on environmental issues on

issues of human rights and education on refugees 1st of all i find the generation as extraordinarily well informed much more able to judge for themselves what is right and wrong and therefore i think playing a much larger part in the public debate so when we sit here in the halls me talk about stakeholder capitalism there are 2 things that are in a sense coming together one is capitalism is essentially about an economy in which capital really determines what happens and so when we start almost a color capitalism it's an interesting moment because what you're essentially positing is look capital cannot be the single and sole determinant of what happens in our society so can stakeholders really be shaping that outcome if they don't on capital so this is the debate of our time it's not a compromise it's a kind of reassertion that yes there are people who have capital but then there are markets there are democracies there are societies and i think that is

a discussion that is extremely timely because frankly speaking simply replicating the 20th century economy into the 21st century is going to lead us to more and more crisis in the here if i may just say one thing to mohamed part of the reason why we have this sustainable development goals is precisely to not allow governments or indeed capital markets to simply say this is the one thing that matters and everything else is secondary is the s.t.g. is are by definition a reminder that living together on this planet was 89000000000 people you have to address these issues together it's a systems agenda if you. one and within that each one of us can identify things we're passionate about so yes to g.'s in a sense the operating system of our 20th century societies and each one of us can put an apple in it and say i'm a refugee i want to do something for the people i come from and i care about but i don't think we need to trade one off against the other because frankly speaking climate change is not more or less important than education or employment but it is

probably the most dangerous issue right now on which in action threatens us in the short term muhammadiyah response. i mean again i'm already doing that climate change is not. exactly we both agree that climate is the most important issue but as you said if if we want to put if we want to and in a sense represent their stevie's in a try to represent those 3 g.'s equally to a certain extent of course then let's actually trying to do that my point is not that the we need to prioritize one goal and then and then focus on that and solve it because as you said everything is interconnected so we can't just focus on one but if you really consider all is d.g.'s or in a sense equally important and we need to work on them all then we need to treat them as such we can treat this disease as a trend we can just look at them because now that's what all the media is talking about and everyone's talking about we need to focus on that we asked

a question at the beginning of this program and it was with 10 excuse me is the world on track to deliver on the 2030 agenda and you can see it there the clear answer from 100 percent of you is no so. we are here having the correct conversation today which is why it is that we need to do about it i want to ask you actually about partnerships but do you feel that also should 1st on the commend to you different parts of society will have to work within the. capabilities to make a difference for the world to work as d.g. i have no capabilities in climate but we have massive capabilities in health care and health will continue to be a very big part of well being in the world so for us focusing on making sure we make a difference there and today we are confronted again to everyone is nowhere with the new corona of ours and so on that makes or partially part of a result of a climate change bank is result of a climate change. is a result of

a climate change by bouts moving around the world to different regions and spreading it paula and so in the media and other themes we made we make we are working on tools to prevent a big truck scenes and at the moment we are vaccinating we are on the way to vaccinate 770-0000 people in the kiva region and into to prevent them from getting infected so we have all have to have earth in order to make sure that we compute to is the g.'s the marksman we can reach the respective industries and that's where we're working towards climate change and i'll do my best as a person as an industry we absolutely will be one of the 1st to get to see it through a neutral in a company but that's not good enough for us we need to have massive impact on the held as a result of the climate change thank you very much we were getting some questions actually in from all of you and i'd like to pose one of them to here and this is a big question i hope you're ready what is the biggest game changer to mobilizing

action. viewing your experience because i mean you have you have been on the ground maybe you can tell us about what you saw when you were taking action so i was born and brought up at the foot of mount kenya and i grew up surrounded by the forest it's a beautiful place and i grew up with a father who was a tree hugger so i started planting trees when i was about 5 years so i've been planting trees since i was 5 years. and we just had a forest but in 2017 i would go home quite often because the global ship was me robbie had a project sitting up and i berry and i see scenting maybe late and so go home quite often and i would meet trucks of one trucks with logs filling logs out of the forest and i would take photos and just keep quiet but then the community reached out and said we're going to wipe out our entire forest they're going to our entire forest if you don't do anything. there is no. you can never more be lazy you

never received at achieve. you can ever be a true activist if you work alone so you have to work with the people but the most powerful too is tory telling so there is only one successful was because we had collected photos we had videos we had people joining and sharing their personal stories and then we created a hashtag which is save our forests katie. that became the platform where every kenyan would show the destruction of forests around them drying up. people are talking about who harvests were also used for tours for instance of cars that have not been washed and we would say you know this is this is the reality there is also a short shortage of water in there will be and we would show photos of cuts being pooled and people buying water so this was very very possible and we created a movement that pushed the government to take action you have but you cannot move forward without the people the most the easiest way to achieve progress or to achieve change is through moving with the people so perhaps the lesson learned is

that anyone can mobilize anyone can has got to have anywhere and i want to instill into their. part and you were mentioning actually in your 1st answer a little bit earlier that it was your feeling at least that there were many people around the world who felt that it wasn't impacting them and therefore they did not care fair assessment. so somebody asked the following question. what would make the s.t.g. is meaningful to an everyday person do you perhaps have any ideas or insights i mean i do think this disease are meaningful to to most people is that they all resent the sions for the problem what that what the what their problem is if you want to make them more meaningful i think basically just highlight those people who is being impacted by who's who there's disease represents the stakeholders. i mean for you i'll take i'll take a wide example for exist on the media it's not only on those stages but everywhere you know like the amazons fires were all heard about it we all felt deeply

concerned when the amazons fire but there's a lot of indigenous people who lost their homes because of the engine is fires who maybe done it and that the 1st race in continues in the amazons it didn't stop. we don't hear much of those indigenous people voices not anymore at least in canada there is they're building oil pipelines and they're impacting the people homes and we're not hearing about this ingenious people much who are one of the main stakeholders for climate change who are suffering on the ground we need to understand that if people want to take as d.g.'s people i'm talking. the one who are in the streets if they want to take this disease seriously they need to see that people that corporates and international organizations who present as disease or present as the fires as the g.'s need to also take those people seriously they need to lift them up they need to represent them and they need to allow those people to represent themselves we were having

a dinner the other day and we were talking also there's a really important point most of the people who's been impacted by such issues don't have a voice not only because no one is representing them but all of times if they want to have a voice they are going to risk their lives i come from countries where we have a lot of dictatorships and therefore to convey my real message probably be killed or imprisoned what we need to do is we need to ask people what are those messages in order for us to try to convey them that's why what i tried to do is for example when i went to i went to a short trip to mexico i tried to talk with and it is people there who if they talk they might be imprisoned and i'm here to him to tell their message the same way i expect you to tell my message because i can say that we need to recognise that or oppression generally and inequality is really important for people to start going to. and this is the use of meaningful because if they don't live in a world where they can comprehend the idea of solving comprehend the idea of free cheated because no one is representing them but all of times if they want to have

a voice they're going to risk their lives i come from countries where we have a lot of dictatorships and therefore not convey my real message or probably be killed or imprisoned what we need to do is we need to ask people what are those messages in order for us to try to convey them that's why what i tried to do is for example when i went to i went to a short trip to mexico i tried to talk with denise people there who if they talk they might be imprisoned and i'm here to tell their message the same way i expect you to tell my message because i can say it we need to recognize that or oppression generally and inequality is really important for people to start considering this is disease of meaningful because if they don't live in a world where they can comprehend the idea of solve comprehend the idea of featuring one of those disease called goals they can take it they can take it serious they can't consume it meaningful and people can make change because they are the main stakeholders they are the voters they are the buyers but we need to

start looking at them and treating them differently to actually represents them the way the same way they represent everyone else so awareness exposure communications all of these things we need more of a him i'd like to also ask you about incentives as well and perhaps your view on that because somebody wrote the following question shouldn't countries that outperform the s.a.g.'s be commended for example an ethic g bonus and those that under perform it can allies. well maybe in another century we'll live in a world where you know the collective can punish individual nations i think we are far from that and i think frankly speaking you know this are you frustrated that you don't have that mechanism no because i don't think that's what will make people do things what i think the s.t.g. is are more than anything else they are a reflection of who we are or who we want to be or where we're failing to be what we would like to be you know i don't have to explain to anyone that you know

solidarity reciprocity empathy are good things and you go into a schoolyard and you watch a group of students you know who the bully is who is going to want to be associated with that person maybe for tactical reasons temporarily and you can extrapolate that to geopolitics but we all know who we actually would gravitate towards right is the g.'s are in a sense an expression of who we think we are and i go back to hundreds upon intentionality i lead an organization the united nations called the u.n. development program it is absolutely committed in an explicit way to the intentionality of helping people across the world to have more choice and i think what i believe in is that 1st we must challenge paradigms that tell people that they cannot do something this is why when i lead the united nations i'm armed for i spend a great deal of time in challenging the economic paradigm making in a sense an environmental sustainability economic illiterate because we're being told all the time that this is the only way that you can develop that you can you

know address poverty and it's not true but at the end of the day what we must try and do and whether it is in your village in kenya and you know there is a great president that you have one very much equally began planting trees but you very quickly realize that it is actually women and pieced and the broader setting that will make planting trees so much more meaningful. we live in a time where most of us are somehow being given the sense that things are too complicated we do not understand them others must decide for us others will manage our money others will manage our digital economy wrong we have to learn to become part of a movement that says we have choices to make and we need to be informed and then let us exercise those choices from there on all sorts of you know political tactics movements economic alliances can be build but i think from a very personal point of view i agree intentionality extremely important 1st of all you have to commit to something that allows you to know where you want to go

secondly allows others to also judge you and we don't have to send armies into countries that are not planting trees i don't think that will help us alone. but countries will very quickly understand that those who plant trees may be a hell of a lot better off than those who think they can live without them and i think that is part of our age of knowing thing this poll would you like to weigh in you know i think if you have the privilege as a leader to come to this forum enough to be part of the dewalt. working on the world held the world as the g.'s in the future you also have to be have an accountability and each in their industries we should go back and take accountability what we can do and make a commitment over the next so many years or the next year what are we going to do in order to take bear responsibility and as a representative of the health care community we are meeting here to have that type of discussion on how can we jointly make more difference and it is about sharing

data is the about collaborating and precompiled be competitive fields but you have to have your accountability word towards a future it's intentionality but it's also leaders have to have the accountability to somebody writes the following question how should governments and business cooperate in order to achieve the aesthetic awls. i think the only way that corporation can work there is is both act as humans and make sure that we go for inclusive of everyone in the world it's corporations or collections of people governments or collections of people and you talk to people who need to work together every one of us as a human being and if we take the strength of who we are and bring that to the table and the strength to represent from our government for a company for the good of the world let's work together to have the most possible impact and having an open forum where you can discuss where you can brainstorm where you can say good ideas come out and then go back home and make it work when you hear you satisfied with that answer i have seen you shaking your head over

there so i want to say that it's very very simple it's putting the common good above self because majority of us are driven by selfish interests you find the business will go to govern. meant to negotiate for personal interests they want to pay less the taxes they want. laws not to be implemented because they are going to have a look at the timber industry in kenya for instance or continue to destroy our forests but we are many other ways of benefitting from it but i want to respond to both. you n.d.p. rep and pour and see that 1st global shipper sent me to tell you thank you very much for the cognizing masses and midwives and prioritizing mental health but they also asked me to challenge you on why. we do not have any center in ina vision center in africa where you could be building capacity for more and more research especially now that we have many young people in 2050 who have about 77 percent youth my challenge of development partners i feel you feel you do not do

enough in terms of holding your member countries accountable when i look at my country we have about 6 articles in the constitution that's because about the environment but then the constitution requires acts 2 to 2 to operationalize but when you look at that. we have such loopholes that allow for the destruction of forests kenya is only a country that has a climate change act which was passed in $216.00 but it has never been implemented when you look at african union it's still in its draft form syngenta 17 yet when we you know these leaders have mustered ways of you know the p.r. language so they know what to say to be clapped for but do you hold them accountable somebody told me that if we solve all the problems the un will close office is that that's cause action. and actually we only have

a couple of minutes left for our conversation for disclosure so i am going to allow everyone to respond to that are you going to accept a call to action do you do you have another call to action. or do you have another commitment that you would like to make these are our final thoughts now you have the 1st response i heard to call to action and i promise we will not leave that behind so we're going to court and then gania and i'll come and see you there i have a call to action to do what i said earlier is to make commitments each of us as an industry to want to be committed to the gigi's by what earth capabilities is the strongest and that is bringing better help to as many people as possible in the world i have. well to the question of innovation i actually have a very good story because the new n.d.p. we've just launched 60 accelerator labs and 30 of them have been established in africa so we're betting on africa probably because i think what happens next in africa will define a great deal for what happens elsewhere in the world and in terms of

a call i would simply say you know the 100 percent we're not on track to fulfill the s.t.g. is you can sit back and say well that obviously makes this geezer relevant big mistake so take that seriously it is a way of not just doing what you care about it reminds you that we operate in systems and so what matters to you may be of consequence to someone else that's why the s.t.g. is our way of bringing us together and not to distract us from what is important to each one of us want to hear what are your final words my call to action is to the end people we have so much power we have 3500000000. and we we have the power to see no to all organisations and companies their products and services all those that do not bury takes people in planet and say we're going to boycott them and letters and i would call young people in ask us to avoid court products from any company that does not prioritize people in planet any company that is not us such as coca-cola.

for our viewers at home there were just claps in the audience that it's. ok. there's a are final words i've neglected to mention at the beginning of this that you are actually still in high school which i think people would find difficult to believe it's so incredibly impressive what you have been doing in the future so therefore i'd like to give you the final word well there is a there is a point that i haven't said and that i feel it's all for all of us it's important to remember and to start saying. young and all that. which we don't talk about it much because it's shameful special for countries that are here and country like the us and that's the producing of weapons that not only contribute to the c o 2 emissions which affect climate change but also fuel worse we need to stop that

we need to and they not going to stop that not the companies not the government's they're not going to stop there we're going to stop that the people is going to stop that we're going to my call of action is to take the streets protests because no one's going to listen to you of been here for 4 days and no one has been listening so take the streets protests because if we're going down we're going to take them down with us. i've just been told by my producer that we have been gifted some extra time therefore i will ask one final question what will you personally do that was your call for action for others what you personally didn't want to. to saving forests in kenya and finding ways of co-existing particularly for communities leaving their own forests how do we benefit from forests without. destroying the natural state of forest and i'm also commuting to work we're going to stations with companies to transition from harmful practices to better practices

that has made our. you know i'm i will try to do what i have been inspired by those who you know have shown us sometimes the way forward which is said you should never not say what you believe is right even when the times are wrong and i think you know i operate in an environment right now where a great deal of what i sometimes have to say is not necessarily what is. what people would like to hear but i think this is part of the the ethic and the core of the united nations also that it stands for what is right and even the times are tough you should have that sense said there at least there is a willingness to stand by principles and yet we fail every day because at the end of the day we're not floating in some free space so i think for me personally it is a reason to be in the united nations today because in fact the very things that it stands for are so often under assault just. bring new interventions to

save much of number of people starting with vaccines medicines and also bring together the community to join us in doing the same on the large scale in the world . well continue telling the story. and i just say he's no longer the future is the present on this is one of the fascinating things because he said you know the earth is always the future actually that the present and that's why it's so great perhaps. you have been watching the duchess ellen debate at the world economic forum in davos switzerland my name is sarah kelly this session has been a decade to deliver a sustainable development thank you so much for joining us thank you so much to all . thank.
