The Tree of Hope
This book introduces Khadra to us, a young girl living in a desert landscape and describes how she turned her home into an oasis. "The Tree of Hope", written by our Youth Ambassador Kehkashan Basu, is an inspiring story of a girl who makes a difference, rising beyond conflict and drought, by planting and caring for trees, to benefit her whole community.Through the Voices of Future Generations Children's Book Series, we share two key promises that the world has made to you and to future generations: The Convention on the Rights of the Child and The Future We Want Declaration. These upcoming years are crucial as world leaders will agree on a new sustainable development framework for the next 15 years. The proposed 17 goals include targets to end poverty, to ensure healthy lives and quality education and to combat climate change, among others. The decisions taken will undoubtedly have a huge impact on children's lives and rights today as well as the lives and rights of future generations.

Journey for Tomorrow
Journey for Tomorrow leaves behind stories like Little Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf, classics that taught us to fear other creatures. Rather, it inspires with the tale of dolphins saving a little girl, something that actually happens from time to time, and the girl later saving animals of the Earth. Sarah, living with compassion and dedication, shows us how we must help our animal friends and maintain positive relationships with them.
The White Dolphin
This is not just a charming story about marine ecology. Through a child's innocent eyes and genuine words, it gradually reveals the mentality of economic dominance in the adult world. Childlike language has a greater effect upon society than harsh criticism. The dialogue in the book is filled with compassion and understanding to make readers ponder over and over again. As islanders living in a place surrounded by the sea, we should care more about all the marine lives and sincerely treat them well. Let the critically endangered white dolphins leap freely once more and create the most beautiful waves in the ocean. This is not merely a wish for the young, but for all.
Reclaiming Economics for Future Generations
Reclaiming economics for future generations argues that to build economies which serve people and the planet we need a diverse and decolonised curriculum. How does the global economy currently fail people and the planet, and why has mainstream economics knowledge inadequately addressed the pressing issues of today?
