      (hombre) El 12 agosto es el Día Internacional de la Juventud. Un día para inspirar a los jóvenes a nivel mundial a tomar acciones positivas en sus comunidades. ¿Sabías que más de 3000 millones de personas, casi la mitad de la población mundial, tienen menos de 25 años? Con cifras así, los jóvenes pueden marcar la diferencia en el mundo. Por ello, las Naciones Unidas crearon este día especial para honrar a chicos como tú. Es un día para que pienses en los problemas que afectan a tu generación a nivel mundial. Los niños del mundo celebran el Día Internacional de la Juventud con conciertos, exposiciones de arte, recaudan fondos, talleres y eventos de todo tipo. Algunos hacen videos para expresar sus esperanzas sobre el futuro, otros, son voluntarios e investigan cómo ayudar a los jóvenes menos afortunados. Sin importar cómo celebres tu día, recuerda que tú puedes marcar la diferencia y hacerte escuchar. Las Naciones Unidas han recibido muchos estudiantes a nivel mundial con grandes ideas para hacer cambios positivos en sus comunidades, países y en el planeta tierra. Quizás algún día vayas a Nueva York a representar a tu generación.
