 Each day at Jane Goodall's Global Youth Summit 2008 will prove to be an inspirational and learning experience for all participants. We anticipate a series of motivational speakers, including a keynote address by Dr. Jane Goodall. Other speakers will concentrate on the topics of youth leadership, poverty, environmental issues, water scarcity and sanitation and wildlife conservation.

It would hardly be fair to host a Summit at Walt Disney World without a visit to one of the famous amusement parks. Attendees will spend one full day at Disney's Animal Kingdom, enjoying the park's Earth Day celebration, learning about Disney's unique contributions to wildlife conservation, as well as experiencing thrilling rides and shaking hands with the one and only Mickey Mouse.
