The Youth Bloggers asked and Ms Irina Bokova, Director-General of UNESCO, answers! #UNESCOYouth

Interview of Ms Irina Bokova, Director-General of UNESCO on the occasion of Q&A with the 7th UNESCO Youth Forum youth bloggers and delegates!
At the closing ceremony of the 7th UNESCO Youth forum, the youth bloggers were given the opportunity to ask Ms Irina Bokova, Director-General of UNESCO, some questions affecting young people and/or the theme of the forum "How Youth Drive Change."

Unfortunately, due to time constraint and other logistics, the DG could not answer our questions :-). But we asked all the same and we were told she would definitely answer the questions.

I guess she is a woman of her word because today we have just been informed that the answers to the questions asked by the bloggers at the 7th UNESCO Youth forum is available! Thanks to everyone who made it possible and of course to the youth bloggers (especially Laura and Martina) who were persistent in ensuring that our voices were heard.
