UN@80 Sparks Global Creativity with 'One Home' Initiative
As the United Nations prepares to celebrate its 80th anniversary in 2025, young storytellers worldwide are grabbing cameras 📸 and smartphones 📱 to shape a bold vision for humanity. Through the One Home: Shared Future project, launched by CGTN and global partners, Gen Z creators are blending art and activism to address climate action, cultural unity, and tech-driven progress.
"We’re not just documenting the world – we’re redesigning it," says 19-year-old Kenyan participant Amani Kiprop, whose photo series on sustainable architecture went viral. The eighth collection of submissions reveals striking patterns: AI-generated landscapes coexisting with traditional communities, drone shots of reforestation efforts, and candid portraits of cross-cultural collaboration.
Why This Matters for Digital Natives
With 65% of contributors under 25, the initiative mirrors how young people are rewriting global diplomacy through TikTok-style storytelling. The best entries will be showcased at UN anniversary events, giving grassroots perspectives a seat at the international table 🪑🌐.
