Against the backdrop of one of Frances most iconic
landmarks, right opposite the Arc du Triomphe, over 80,000 people - comprising
adults, youths and community leaders gathered at the Place de la
Concorde, for the annual Printemps Solidaire event.
This years theme was enunciating the power of youths in
France and the position of their voice in talking up the need for social
changes that would provide for the underprivileged, the uneducated, while
pressing for more government involvement in funding Girls Education globally.
By far the youngest on the stage was 15 year old Zuriel
Oduwole, who electrified the crowd with her simple but profound analogy of why
more needs to be done, for the needy around the world, especially in the area
of Girls Education.
