REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, NUSA DUA -- As many as 100 youth from Indonesia and international countries gained an insight into Indonesia's diversity at the Youth Event of the 6th United Nations Alliance of Civilization (UNAOC) Global Forum in Bali on Thursday.

During the Youth Event's opening ceremony at the Bali Nusa Dua Convention Center (BNDCC), Nusa Dua, on Thursday, Indonesian Foreign Affair Minister Marty Natalegawa stated that the youth had the unique ability to directly communicate and were able to accept and respect the differences in diversity.

"When the youth meet each other, among them, there can be felt solidarity, togetherness, same vision, and attitude to promote mutual respect and friendship among religions and ethnic groups," Natalegawa noted.

Through the Youth Event, which is focused on "The Role of Youth in Promoting "Unity in Diversity" through Education, Media and Migration," the youth participants were expected to learn about the diversity in Indonesia.
