Five weeks ago, 40 students representing 25 countries got together in the Buddies Without Borders Online Forum and examine the hunger and waste challenges in 10 key countries around the world as equal global citizens.
They conquered cultural and language barriers, worked across the time zones and schedules, debated, collaborated and compromised. Ten proposals were evlauted by a panel of judges and voted by thousands of viewers. Hundreds of essays were scored and reviewed. International meetings were conducted day and night.
