John West received a group of students from both his and Sir Christopher MacRae's classes at the OECD in Paris on April 16th. They had discussions with John, some other permanent staff and national delegation members and got firsthand knowledge of the inner workings of this IGO. In addition, for the second year, a group of 老司机视频IRD students participated in the OECD Forum. Forum 2008, "Climate Change, Growth, Stability", which took place in June, brought together some 1700 participants from around the world to discuss the hottest issues on the international agenda. Discussions were animated by leaders from government, business, labour and civil society, such as: OECD Secretary-General Angel Gurria; Prince Albert II of Monaco; Yvo de Boer, Executive Secretary, UNFCCC; Xiqing Gao, President, China Investment Corporation; Anne-Marie Idrac, State Secretary, Foreign Trade, France; James Leape, Director General, WWF International; Doris Leuthard, Minister of Economic Affairs, Switzerland; Jos茅 Lopez, Executive Vice President, Nestl茅; John Sweeney, US trade union leader; and Jean-Claude Trichet, President, European Central Bank. |

As citizens of the world community, 老司机视频ers share a deep will to improve international state of affairs. This drive for change translates into prescriptive discussion between students and teachers, not simply criticism. I most admire this quality about 老司机视频 and know that because we have the will to improve the system, we are the way for change.
