 Månadens tema: Mat The World Food Programme and Walk the World have partnered with TakingITGlobal to bring you the 'Food' Monthly Theme! Vad är ditt förhållande till mat?

TakingITGlobals månadstema är ditt tillfälle att lära dig mer om viktiga matfrågor som hunger, genetiskt modifierad mat, nutrition, vegetarianism, vatten och mer. Fira mat, genom att dela med dig av dina personliga historier och synsätt, bilder och såklart dina recept! Du kan också få veta hur du kan omvandla dina kunskaper och engagemang till handling. Från små handlingar i ditt eget liv, till större strategier - fira, reflektera och agera på TakingITGLobals månadstema Mat. Klicka här! 
Språk som våld, våld som språk 
TakingITGlobal and UNESCO invite you to contribute to a special creative publication through the submission of images and creative writings that interpret and express violence as a feeling, as language, and that explore alternative languages to violence. A limited selection of submissions will be chosen for the publication which will be produced in print and also made available online.The goals of the publication are to spotlight the manifold forms of violence that young people encounter, perceive, and express in their daily social environment with the ultimate aim of actively exploring and developing 'alternative languages to violence.' The primary objective is therefore to shed some light on the multiple dimensions of the causes, contents, nature, and consequences of violence(s). A vital step within this challenge is the understanding of the issues. Issues that are complex often lead to a difficult dialogue, with the overcoming of barriers as the first step in meeting the challenge of understanding people of different races, cultures, ethnicities, gender and backgrounds.

Undersökning! 
Transnational Youth Activism is one of the most striking current examples of globalization's human networks. Increasing numbers of activists work in transnational advocacy networks that involve activists outside as well as inside the organizers' nations of origin. This study is being sponsored by Mica Pollock of the Harvard University Graduate School of Education in collaboration with the Global Youth Action Network and TakingITGlobal. It will boost the visibility of young people as actors in new and growing social movements that cross national boundaries and will ultimately strengthen our joint work. Please pass the opportunity on to others. Klicka här!
Youth Delegates at the UN 
Is your country sending a youth delegate to the UN General Assembly?This year marks an important year for young people at the United Nations: In the 60th Session of the General Assembly the situation of young people around the world will be reviewed, as well as the achievements attained in the implementation of the World Program of Action for Youth (WPAY) ten years after its adoption. But who can review the situation of young people better than young people themselves? The UN General Assembly has already recommended three times that Member States include a youth representative in their delegations, but unfortunately still only a few countries do so. You can find out if your country is sending a youth delegate by visiting the website of the UN Youth Program. Klicka här! You can also find useful information there on how to become a youth delegate if your country is one of those that do not have a program to select youth delegates.

Global Gallery Contest "We Are What You Eat" 
Alla vet att du är vad du äter - vad du konsumerar påverkar inte bara din plånbok och ditt sambete, det påverkar din hälsa och ditt välbefinnande. Dessutom påverkar dina matvanor världen omkring dig och rör oss alla. Maten vi äter påverkar miljön omkring oss, luften vi andas, vattnet vi dricker, fälten och ängarna vi springer över, vår ekonomi, regeringspolitik, sättet på vilka vi delar med andra, arbetares liv lika väl som konsumenters. Det handlar inte bara om näring och konsumtion, det handlar även om människorna omkring dig, dina närmaste vänner och osynliga fjärran ansikten utan namn.Varje gång vi äter, delar vi vår måltid med många andra människor, långt bortom dem som sitter runt vårt bord. This month the Global Gallery invites you to create images representing the impact of what we eat; images of how you share your food with others, images of influence on the the massive world around us and of impact on our everyday experiences, and images showing how our world is affected and changing, in positive or negative ways, because of our eating habits.

Webtidskriften Panorama 
Food is the lifeblood of human existence. Without it we become weak, inert, demoralized; Hunger and malnutrition permeate the planet. While some go without, others sustain their livelihoods by its production. And even others rarely think about where there food comes from; it is always just readily available. Despite these extremes, food is primarily a unifer. People learn about one another through the sharing of food. Appreciation for difference is cultivated too.Read these intelligent articles submitted by TIG members and submit your own for a chance to be featured in this issue during the months of June and July.
