CreativeChange Traveling Youth Arts Exhibition is a learning journey on development with arts. The exhibition displays images using different media created by young people from all around the world. Through the images and texts the exhibition aims to raise greater awareness about the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs); explore the emotional facets within the goals; foster an intercultural dialogue and understanding through diverse perspectives around these globally common goals; and ultimately contribute to the achievement of the MDGs by 2015.

With your visit we desire to:

o continue generate awareness on those vital development issues that need to be fulfilled
o learn together and inspire each other to take action
o recognize the creative young individuals, who are giving their voice and sharing their work, and encourage their role in the development field, particularly in achieving the MDGs
o support the interdisciplinary approach of arts in social change and development

Within the exhibition you will also find a guest book that you're invited to leave your comments on. Tell us what you think on MDGs, arts and development? Do you think arts, in any kind, can be effective to help attain those vital development goals? The guest book will travel around the world with the exhibition, gathering thoughts and perspectives, and becoming a journey in itself.

Come and join our quest. Let's together create positive linkages and make some creative change.
