younger generation “usefully and wisely in world-wide development efforts” [A/7601/Add.1, para. 87]. Indeed, youth should be enabled to play an increasing role in the planning of their and our future. 85. In my own country and in many other countries, we witness, fortunately, an increasing interest among young people in the work and objectives of the United Nations. It will be our duty to find ways in which they can actively and constructively participate in our efforts. In doing so, the United Nations may, under the Lord’s guidance, well acquire new strength, new energy and new incentives to strive for a world which will be a better and safer place for everyone to live in.
