YouTube Creators for Change Maha AJ, AsapSCIENCE, L-FRESH The LION, MostlySane and MaximNoise will join the UN for the observance of the International Day for Tolerance to feature a screening of international short films from YouTube’s 2018 Creators for Change programme. There will be a panel discussion on tolerance and the 70th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR), as well as a live musical performance. At a time when the Internet is criticized for fuelling division and distrust, this event will demonstrate how it can be used to create positive social impacts. YouTube Creators for Change spotlights inspirational creators who use YouTube’s global reach to change conversations around tough issues and make a positive impact on the world. From combating hate speech, to countering xenophobia and extremism, to making the case for greater tolerance and empathy toward others, the YouTube creators, from over sixteen countries, are helping generate positive social change among their global fan bases.
