For Kids a Little Older
Youthnoise.com "fills a dangerous silence in global culture by giving youth voices to make a stand." A goal of this website is to help teens overcome the stereotypes about teens. This website offers teens the opportunity to get involved with global issues and to connect with other teens around the globe. A "Walk in My Shoes" section enables a teen to read about what it's like to grow up in another country.
