Youths need leaders who empower their voice, says Dia (Movie Snippets)

Actress-activist Dia Mirza, impressed by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, says young people need leaders to help them recognise the power of their voice.

Dia, who met Trudeau last month in Delhi as the UN Goodwill Ambassador for India, was floored to see how "well he knows young minds".

"His keynote speech followed by his interaction with us was indicative of how well he knows young minds. His answers were evocative of empathy, a desire to help each person in the audience understand the role every person can play to inspire leadership," Dia said in a statement.

"Young people need leaders to help them recognise the power of their voice," she added.
