Global leaders have begun their annual World Economic Forum meeting in the Swiss ski resort of Davos. The 3000-strong participants have been joined by hundreds of protesters calling on them to take action on climate change. Among those participating this year is New Zealander Shruthi Vijayakumar who's a member of the Forum's Global Shapers Community, which was set up by the Forum's founder Professor Klaus Schwab as a way of bringing younger people together to address local, regional and global challenges. She'll tell Lynn about the workshop she's hosting at Davos.
