| Long Abstract: |
On August 23rd and 24th, when young delegates from such diverse countries as Australia, Guyana, India, Nepal, South Korea, South Africa, Zambia, Germany and the United States arrive at the United Nations in New York for a two-day international human rights summit, 17-year-old Rosemary Lokko will be there to represent the youth of her own country - Ghana. Rosemary, the secretary of her school's Youth for Human Rights Club, has a passion to improve human rights for all children in Ghana. In her own words: "The worst cases of human right abuses occur in the areas of child trafficking or slavery, child labor, and the deprivation of children's rights to free education." |
