Students from around the world have gathered to take part in their own versions of G8 and G20 summits in the US capital
All addressing the same global issues as their more seasoned counterparts and bringing fresh ideas to old problems
Vanshika Khan, Indian delegate, said, “It’s very interesting were discussing green growth - something that’s become extremely important after the economic crisis."
Lin Menhi, Chinese delegate, said, "All of the delegation are students in universities they may lack experience but they are very passionate."
Various committees met around the central Washington campus but all eyes were on the heads of state meeting - as serious and as focused as their real counterparts on the world stage: - trying to find a solution to Syria.
And China’s "acting head of state" talked about the pressures of the job. Chao Kuang said, “To represent the chinese delegation in the G20 - it takes a lot of pressure and responsibility as we all know china is the emerging power of the whole world, so it does need china’s voice especially the voice of the youth ."
