Release the Future! World Politics, Youth & Hormones

 

 

The youth of today are lambasted for having a mobile phone centric "it's all about me" culture.  At a simulated United Nations meeting in New Zealand, university students from the around the world gather.  When youth, hormones, and high ideals get dressed up in suits for a week to nut out global issues…. what hope have they got? ■

 

Model United Nations is a simulation of the United Nations decision-making process, using similar rules and procedures to those in UN committees.  Students take part by representing a country, not necessarily their own, and debate using the viewpoints of that country.

Once a year, university students from the Asia-Pacific region and beyond gather.

 

Release the Future! World Politics, Youth & Hormones” follows delegates in a fly-on-the-wall documentary when they go to Auckland NZ attempting to develop resolutions on controversial issues.

 

Passion and politics are very high, youth and lofty ideals are also in the mix, rules are rigidly stuck to; personalities and cultures clash and social intercourse levels it all out.  This program will have several different stories juxtaposed showing how decisions are really made.   “Release the Future! World Politics, Youth and Hormones” will ask whether today’s young generation is ready to take over the reins of society. ■

 

This documentary will model governance procedures; therefore, one of the stories is a close examination of the development of a resolution within the Security Council and, the pressures and negotiation that impact on the final outcome.  There are also many human stories that will keep the audience engaged. The program will show how many delegates have struggled to pay their own way. ■

 

 

 

It inspires the Next Generation to get involved in issues that concern them.  It also demonstrates that a passionate future in the decision-making process is possible and that it is within the reach of many young viewers, regardless of their background to engage in the system and make a difference to their lives and that of their societies.

 

It will show future generations that no matter what the argument, the power of discussion and talk is always better than conflict.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The program deals with young people's decision-making ideas, it shows that despite the bad press, the up-and-coming generation is focused and determined to make the world a better place. 

 

Release the Future! World Politics, Youth & Hormones will highlight how decisions are made in a large political organisation such as the United Nations and the internal and external pressures that can impact outcomes. 

 

It will demonstrate how negotiations between varying cultures can result in sometimes bland and seemingly hopeless resolutions that no one is happy with, but it is the fact that the resolutions have taken place at all which is important. ■
