DISQUS

Normally I would not even bother to reply on a post like this, but I believe you're correct, at least partially. The sham lies with the organisation itself. Almost half of the delegates (or simply attendees if you ask me) are not actively living in their respective countries but are living in the States! Their accents are so American, you would have thought that globalisation has effected in a complete and devastating manner. The delegates from third world countries were promised full accommodation but ended up having to pay a portion. One girl from an African country barely had enough to buy a postcard. Their food for the week was all takeaway, and by that I mean fastfood takeaways. This from a Youth organisation that promotes human rights, what about a right to healthy food? (Yes, I know that it isn't stated like that in the charter.) So yes, you're absolutely correct up to now. The good guys in the whole thing are the (very weird) Scientology guys. They sponsored the whole thing and weren't aware of all the crap ito management and arrangements. They truly believe that youth around the world (future population) should become more aware of human rights. By the way, that is there focus. Not to enforce, but to enlighten. The youth can pressure governments in implementing or at least hasten the implementation of human rights. The Scientologues (????) did one thing right, but should do more to see that their money goes to the youth not the management.
