Commonwealth conversation

 HMA Bob Dewar with Ambassador of Uganda, David Etuket, Ambassador of Gambia, Angella Colly and Co-ordinator, Commonwealth Youth Organisation of Nigeria, Blackson Bayewumi, at the Commonwealth Conversation Press Conference in Abuja by UK in Nigeria

My Ugandan colleague as current Commonwealth Chair launched an awareness campaign with the press, which I attended. This was to encourage Nigerians to participate in the 'Commonwealth conversation.' A great idea, asking people to say what they think about the relevance of the Commonwealth in the modern world.

Just log on to www.thecommonwealthconversation.org. What goals do you think the Commonwealth should have for the future? How can it connect better with the young (half of Commonwealth citizens are under 25). And so on. This conversation is 2 billion voices in 53 countries of amazing diversity, sharing common language and values and a force for positive change in our planet. Make your voice heard!
