Pro-life Statement Enters UN Youth Fray

Pro-life Statement Enters UN Youth Fray » Catholic Family and Human Rights Institute: The draft resolution on youth and the pro-life statement are an indication of divided opinions that will manifest in the July conference to celebrate the end of the UN International Year of Youth. The UN youth document presents a negative state of youth in the world, focusing on young people as impoverished, unengaged, and intolerant. In contrast, the pro-life statement contains an optimistic appraisal of the potential that young people have to participate in development.
