Its mission is to promote mutual understanding among 11- to 17-year-olds of diverse backgrounds and support their development into world citizens with strong inner grounding. In its 13 years, KidSpirit has published writing, artwork, and video by hundreds of kids from 30 countries on meaningful topics, such as human dignity, unity and diversity, power, climate change, education, society and the individual, gender, money, and peacemaking. Its unique platform reaches 250,000 readers from 190 countries each year, plus many more through syndication. ECOSOC is the UN body responsible for advancing economic, social, and environmental dimensions of sustainable development.

As an NGO associated with the UN Department of Global Communications, KidSpirit representatives will be granted access to open meetings of the UN and invited to attend thematic briefings featuring UN officials, Member States delegates, and other experts from the civil society community.
