Participation was also impressive, over 1100 participants gathered in the UN 
Headquarters; through video linkages we reached an even wider audience in Canada, the 
Netherlands and the Artic region. In fact, taking full advantage of information and 
communication technologies, the public had an opportunity to listen and contribute their 
opinions and ideas simultaneously and virtually. Forum discussions were webcast live on 
the Internet and included interactive chat rooms. A blog website had been set up and 
featured background information and guide questions to stimulate discussion on the 
themes of the meeting.
A Youth Forum on Our Common Humanity in the Information Age was held at the 
United Nations on Tuesday, 28 November as a prelude to the day-long conference.
With this event we aimed to bring a truly diverse set of viewpoints and experiences to the 
podium in order to stretch our minds and inspire us to strive harder to fulfill the values 
we have been challenged to uphold.
The Global Alliance is discussing future steps and follow-up actions to the Common 
Humanity event and will set up an agenda and a range of issues that will span the whole 
of the United Nations Millennium Declaration and will convene meetings with interested 
partners to chart the next steps on the path to reaching Our Common Humanity’s 
objectives.
There is a keen interest and genuine support among stakeholders to continue the effective 
and efficient actions in this area in order to obtain concrete and tangible results with the 
full engagement of the private sector and civil society. It is expected that further 
partnerships will develop to achieve the Millennium Development Goals and preserve the 
basic values of the Millennium Declaration.
