When the 14-year-old was asked if she had a message for world leaders, she told Reuters: "Listen to us. Youth is very powerful."  As to her role for the United Nations children's agency, she said, "I want to raise issues about education and violence and ending bullying and ... making sure children have a safe environment and clean water. But I'm still learning what I feel passionate about."
