The Baha'i International Community hosted a discussion with an interdisciplinary group of graduate students from Columbia University to invite their perspectives on the vision and values that should inform the emerging post-2015 development agenda. Opening remarks were given by Mr. Ravi Karkara, Expert Advisor on Children and Youth, UN Human Settlements Programme, and Mr. Waruna Sri Dhanapala, Minister Counselor, Permanent Mission of Sri Lanka to the United Nations. A working document, produced by the Baha'i International Community,‘Accelerating Progress, Expanding Horizons: Reflections on the Purpose, Means and Protagonists of Post-2015 Development’ served as the basis for the discussions.
