MC: Julian Quintart, Celebrity & Environmental Activist
Panel: Ban Ki-moon (8th UN Secretary General), Kim Sook (23rd Koran Ambassador to the UN)
Julian Quintart, a celebrity from Belgium, hosted the afternoon schedule,
and the talk concert was held with Ban Ki-moon, the 8th UN Secretary General,
and Kim Sook, executive director!
At first, we had "Ban Quiz!,"
a quiz about Ban Ki-moon, the 8th UN Secretary General, for ice breaking .
What the Climate Environmental Leaders Felt After the Talk
(1) SDGs and the Paris Climate Agreement
Ban Ki-moon Secretary General said many good things.
One of his representative achievements was the SDGs and the Paris Climate Agreement.
About the Paris Climate Agreement, he said that he went to the heads of state
and explained the importance of this agreement.
He said that if it was a year late, he could not have achieved it.
I thought that a leader must need an initiative to push what he thinks is right.
(2) Virtue that Youths Must have as Leaders of the 21C by Kim Sook, executive director
He mentioned about the BTS fanclub ARMY,
and said that we are an ARMY saving the environment.
A for Act
R for Read, read many books regardless of genre
M for Meditate, think a lot
Y for Yearn
I really like the words he gave us. I hope there are many more opportunities like this.
(3) This Vision of the Secretary General
He said that he is the only former UN Secretary General who is still alive,
and has about 15 jobs.
He said that he will continue to work hard in the rapidly changing society.
I will be rooting for you, Mr. Ban! :)
(4) Negotiation and Crisis Management Tips
He said, "Diplomacy should be based on truth and sincerity."
And political leaders are not easy,
so he emphasied about 'treating others with humility' and 'lead by example.'
Mr. Ban said he likes Laozi's saying, "The best of man is like water."
and said, "I use power when it is needed," and
"When there are 10 people, if 6 or 7 people say it is right, then it is right."
I felt that he is an enlighted person who tries to understand the younger generations!
(5) Climate Crisis Response
He said that companies must cooperate, and talked about sustainable development
referring to companiest that are doing well in ESG management
such as Hyundai Motor Company, POSCO, SK, Samsung, and Hanwha.
We had a meaningful time to present and deliver
the proposal of future generations for NET ZERO to the experts who can change the world.
5. Commemorative Photograph with the 8th Secretary General Ban Ki-moon
It was a time to remind our vision by shouting the slogan.
GET YOUR NET ZERO FUTURE!
Selfi time!
6. Tour - Peace Museum of the 8th UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon
Finally, touring the Peace Museum, students had time to grow their dreams as a global leader
who will enter international organizations!
After the tour, they received the NET ZERO kit and got on the bus to go back home.
What we need is a new generation who will overcome global warming.
Therefore, Ban Ki-moon Foundation and DAEJAYON aims to find the way
that university students can creat a sense of duty for the generation and implement it.
The Climate Environmental Leader Training Course is a education program
that will systematically and practically foster the environmental leaders of the next generation.
.
You do not simply learn knowledge.
You will learn how to be an environmental leader and how to change the world.
Also, you will develop the ability to solve big problems
that the previous generations have not solved.
Become a great generation to overcome global warming
that Korea and the world have never faced before.
