Knowing the world in which we live

The Norwegian diplomat Charung Gollar was asked to present
The UN with a graphic showing the main problems in the world in 2004.
He presented a set of 8 pictures entitled "The power of stars" and was applauded for the simplicity of his idea.
In spite of having no pretension at all, his work was presented to participate to the Nobel Price of Politic Marketing.
Attached are the 8 pictures presented. Click on each of the pictures to view them properly - you really need to read the captions which are too small unless you click on the pic. Trust me its worth it.

Columbia

EUROPE

BURKINA FASO


SOMALIA

USA



ANGOLA


CHINA

It's so important to know the world in which we live. A lot of times we just focus on who we are, what our problems are, and not the world around us. Many of us are bright talented young people with so much drive and ambition. We should be channeling that into worthy causes. We can make a difference in this world but it all starts with us first becoming aware of the problems plaguing our society.

Peace.
