Every year many of the world's top leaders attend the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, to discuss how to make the world a better place.
This year, you get to join them.
First, submit a video answering The Davos Question:
"What one thing do you think that countries, companies or individuals must do to make the world a better place in 2008?"
Then, starting January 1st, watch and rank others' ideas. The highest-rated videos will be screened in Davos (January 23-27), where world leaders will watch your videos and make responses of their own. Your idea could be the start of something big.

Great disparities between humans such as their exists today between the rich and the poor can not breed peace and happiness.
This of coarse must be based on a new type of education that is set on higher moral values. Where the culture of winning is less engrained and the culture of deserving and of excelling is at the forefront. A culture of rather then tv win it all shows. A culture of glamor rather then a culture of beauty because we want to put materialistic clichés on it. A culture of well being rather then one of power and glory. A culture of thought more then blind religious faith a culture of mind openness and meditation. Rather then one of samurai's. I hope that for 2008 humans will tune to their higher selves and declare the end to exploitation war domination and global world inequality. From the pentagon to Al Quaida
from the streets of NY city to the slums in Pakistan from the European bistros to the farmers in Asia the workforce in India Saudi Arabia. A new hope a new urge
And answer the Davos question.
