COSTA RICA SPOTLIGHTS CONTRIBUTION OF YOUTH, TECHNOLOGY, TO GLOBAL
DEVELOPMENT AGENDANew York, Sep 24 2013
8:00PM<"http://gadebate.un.org/68/costa-rica">Costa Rican President
Laura Chinchilla-Miranda highlighted in an address to the United
Nations today the contribution of young people to the new development
agenda through innovation and the use of new technologies.

"Increasingly, innovation, technology, education and culture are
recognized as promoters of development, and there is a growing
consciousness on the need of actively incorporating youth in these
endeavours," Ms. Chinchilla-Miranda told the General Debate of the UN
General Assembly's 68th session.

"Costa Rica is honoured to have hosted and organized, along with the
International Telecommunications Union (IYU), the BYND2015 summit on
youth, development, and information and communication technologies."

Earlier this month, some 700 young people attended the BYND 2015
Global Youth Summit in the Costa Rican capital of San José, and more
than 3,000 followed the conference online and contributed their ideas
from 43 hubs or workshops in 25 different countries using social media
channels.

Ms. Chinchilla-Miranda drew the attention of world leaders to the
Final Declaration of the Conference, which urges Governments to
provide more flexible, dynamic and open means of governing to reach
more people more easily than presently possible. It also calls for
education systems that equip students with not just theoretical
knowledge, but with a practical mix of marketable, innovative and
relevant skills needed to compete in the global digital economy.

"I symbolically present to you the Final Declaration of the
Conference, adopted in our capital on the 11th of this month by
thousands of young people from every continent. We believe it will be
a very relevant input in the discussion of the post-2015 development
agenda," she said.

Ms. Chinchilla-Miranda also stressed the necessity for the
international community to implement a preventive approach not just
for conflicts but also to avert the effects of global warming and
climate change.

"We cannot remain inactive while global warming increases, ocean
levels rise, and the survival of several small island States is
threatened," she said, commending Secretary General Ban Ki-moon's plan
to convene a summit on climate change next year.

"We promote a model of development based upon harmony with nature;
solidarity and social inclusion; economic and trade opening;
development of our human resources, and innovation.

We realize that development is futile if it is not founded on a
profound respect for human dignity and the rights and well-being of
the people, including their day-to-day safety," she added.Sep 24 2013
