Elders + Youngers at Rio+20

As world leaders gather in Brazil for Rio+20, the Elders and Youngers answer your questions on sustainable development, the world you want and how this can be achieved.

Can leaders deliver an agreement at Rio+20? What role should emerging economies like Brazil be playing in the negotiations? Do the Elders and Youngers - change-makers from two different generations - agree on the action needed?

Yesterday, your questions were put to former Brazilian President Fernando Henrique Cardoso and young activist Pedro Telles, watch the video to see the responses from the two on a wide range of pressing issues.

In today's Q&A Mary Robinson, former President of Ireland and former UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, joins Sara Svensson and Marvin Nala to answer your questions on Rio+20.

What have the Elders+Youngers not yet talked about that you want discussed?

To get your question asked, tweet The Elders or post on their Facebook page.
