Historical Markers from the Future - Imagined by Youth Today
Young people from around the world were asked to contribute their voice in an innovative way by creating historical commemorations from the year 2050 on the themes of the Summit of the Future. You will find below the gallery of markers on many topics. They reflect the expectations, ambition and imagination of young people for their desired futures and how we might achieve them. We selected a number of the markers to create in augmented reality and place in three locations around the UN complex. We invite you to experience the possibility of AR as a novel way to reach the public and decision-makers, as well as the sense of possibility from all the youth messages.
Thank you to our youth engagement collaborator TEACH THE FUTURE and to the Building Hopeful Futures Festival for showcasing the project.
