World Youth Day(WYD) is an annual gathering of Catholic young people, created by Pope John Paul II in 1984 "to consolidate the ordinary youth ministry by offering new encouragement for commitment, objectives which foster ever greater involvement and participation"(Letter from Pope John Paul II-Seminar on WYD 1996). It is celebrated on a diocesan level annually, and at a week-long international level every two to three years at different locations, attracting hundreds of thousands of youths from almost every country on the planet. 1, record 1, English, - World%20Youth%20Day

La Journée mondiale de la jeunesse (JMJ) est un évènement organisé par l'Église catholique rassemblant des jeunes catholiques du monde entier. La Journée mondiale de la jeunesse a lieu en fait chaque année, elle est célébrée dans chaque diocèse du monde le Dimanche des Rameaux, avec généralement un petit rassemblement à Rome. Tous les deux ou trois ans, un grand rassemblement international a lieu, à l'invitation du pape, dans une ville différente, et dure alors plusieurs jours. Il s'achève par une messe présidée par le Souverain Pontife réunissant plusieurs centaines de milliers de participants. 1, record 1, French, - Journ%C3%A9e%20mondiale%20de%20la%20jeunesse

There's been lots of talk in the media, among politicians, academics and thinkers about "how young people aren’t getting out to vote" and that "the youth of today don’t care". There is a lot of truth to these impressions. We are going to change this. We... have started a campaign, "The 20, 000 Project", because as young women, we want to show Canadians that we do care.... We are gathering names of young women who will pledge to vote in the next federal election [back in 2004].... And, since we happen to be in Ottawa, we will do our darndest to try and get our collective voices heard. 1, record 2, English, - Young%20Women%20Vote
