Youth of the World: a Flag Parade

The Youth of the World Flag Parade was part of a series of Events of the 70th anniversary celebrations of the UN. It was a creative visual presentation of the member states of the United Nations. The event was hosted by the Embassy of the Republic of Korea within the Hanbok Fashion Show Gala Dinner at Serena Hotel, Islamabad. Students, representing the youth of Pakistan, paraded flags belonging to member states represented in Pakistan. Some students read excerpts from the UN Charter and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights to emphasize the values the UN believes in. This event highlighted the importance of young people to the United Nations but also the importance of young people to Pakistan because the UN believes that they will drive the country’s future.
