Davos 2020: In A First, World Economic Forum Invites 10 Teenage Change-Makers
These 10 teenage change-makers have been fighting against issues ranging from climate change to gun violence.
For the last 50 years, the World Economic Forum at the snow-covered ski resort town of Davos, Switzerland was a platform for the world’s elite to discuss the future of the global economy. But this year, for the first time in its history, the forum welcomed teenage change-makers to its annual meet.
The WEF invited 10 teenage change-makers who are fighting against issues ranging from climate change to gun violence. Among them is Greta Thunberg. The 17-year-old is known to the world for her fiery and impassioned speech on climate change.
"This is just the very beginning" of the climate fight, says environmental activist @GretaThunberg at #WEF20. #BQatWEF #ClimateChange
