Youthink! Audience Speaks Out on the Financial Crisis

We asked for your views on the financial crisis; how you're seeing it impact your countries and how it's changing people's everyday lives around you.
We got answers from all over, and want to say thank you to all those who responded. From Chile to Nigeria, we got a really broad range of insights, and it was interesting to get your views and experiences. Some said their countries were feeling a tremendous impact; for others, only in certain sectors.

In any case, the global economic situation is certainly affecting everyone. Sharing ideas, discussing the issues, and understanding them, is one place to start tackling it. As Cécile from France writes, "new information and communication technologies, especially the Internet, allow each individual to become an international cooperation actor."
