Navigating into the world of adulthood can be a challenge. Ana talks about how accountability is key to making that transition.

Ana Alanis is a global youth activist, human rights advocate, and student at American University in Washington D.C. Through advocacy work at the United Nations and various humanitarian development projects, Ana’s mission is to increase smiles around the world.

Growing up in Venezuela, Switzerland, and Mexico City, Ana identifies as a global citizen.

Ana has been working towards global development since she was a sophomore in high school. As Youth Representative for an HIV/AIDS-oriented NGO, she has advocated for human rights and youth involvement at recognized United Nations forums, such as the Annual Youth Assembly, the 59th Commission on the Status of Women, and the Sustainable Development Summit.

Despite her working towards the goal of international development, Ana refuses to grow up too quickly. She embraces the perks of childhood/youth, strongly believing the enthusiasm and drive of young adults is the key to making a global change.

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
