Introduction to the second World Leadership Conference The World Leadership Conference 2011 is a unique 5-day preparatory conference which aims to re-kindle the “spirit of Rio” by enabling the younger generations of today with the skills, knowledge and inspiration required to be effective leaders in creating change, especially towards climate change and sustainable development. Young leaders from the Asia-Pacific are particularly encouraged to engage in lively debate and think critically about the issues that are facing the region today; an opportunity to meet like-minded peers from around Asia-Pacific, to forge and establish lasting relationship in the region for stronger and more impactful change. One of the key intent of the conference is to connect the achievements of past and present leaders with the younger generations to continue the work of environmental stewardship towards a more sustained future. The key deliverable is combined position paper from the Asia and Pacific region, which will be brought up towards the Rio Summit in 2012 as well as the immediate 17 th Session on the Conference Of Parties. The position paper will brought to UNEP RIM process as the Asia Pacific position paper under Major Group for Children and Youth (MGCY). The WLC identified three key themes: Green Economy to Eradicate Poverty, Energy for a Low Carbon Future, and Institutional Framework on Sustainable Development (previously known as Sustainable Development & Governance), which co-relates with the UNCSD Rio+20’s major two themes. 2. Objective of the event a. Learning – To teach the youths and young leaders in the Asia-Pacific region about the latest developments in environmental matters through seminar sessions. Also known as the Knowledge Track. b. Voicing Out – The coming Rio + 20 Summit in 2012 is an important date of decision for the whole of mankind. We would provide a platform for the youth from all over Asia Pacific to discuss and craft a document to be submitted in the 2012 summit agenda so that their views can be heard. Also known as the Policy Track. c. Taking Action – Bringing the youth of Asia Pacific together for this green agenda would forge new relationships, induce the development of new exciting ideas and provide strong follow up on these projects even after attendees return home. Tangible Outcomes • A Combined Document of Regional Consultation to be submitted to the Rio + 20 Summit Agenda • New projects/initiatives will be started on local, national or regional grassroots levels.
