Americans for Informed Democracy

Why should Americans care about international issues? How are new technologies helping to “globalize” young people? We visited Richard Graves of Americans for Informed Democracy to discuss these questions.

Americans for Informed Democracy is an organization that seeks to educate young people about the global issues that affect their lives and helps them engage with these issues. Richard is a leader in the environmental movement and founder of the blog, “It’s Getting Hot In Here: Dispatches from the Youth Climate Movement,” which boasts 151 contributors from all over the world.
