About Thomas Barlue

This is how Thomas is a Changemaker:
I am a change maker because my aim is to see the youth of my country and the continent graduating from the state of acute poverty, strive, ignorence and criminalism to world productive elements. After the 14 years unbrooken civil crisis in my country, all one can see is a bounch of traumatize and hopeless population of young people who are often miss led and usher into violence at the expense of selfish warlords. My aim is to use my own idealism and insight as a war victim and African patriotic youth activist, embarking on initiatives that would collaboratively change the world of young people in my communities and beyond. I believe this can be done through hands on skills development programs that will add value to young people's life, shifting their minds from violent prone activities to self-sustainable income generating capacities and activities.

The place for which Thomas feels a fondness or connection:
The wwww.takingitglobal.or community and the facebook online programs are useful for young people to make connections and learn. WiserEarth.com is one also.
