This Friday, September 2^nd, Jamie will make a rare speech at the One Young World summit in Zurich; it will be the first time that he has given a public speech since his acceptance of the prestigious TED Prize in February 2010.

As with the TED speech, Jamie is likely to focus his attentions on the global fight against the obesity epidemic and the urgent need for strategic action to educate and empower young people and communities so that they have the knowledge to make better food choices.

The speech will take place at 9.30am on Friday 2^nd September in the Kongresshaus in Zurich.

In honor of Jamie’s speech we will be launching a new petition page on our Facebook Food Revolution Community to help us push Jamie’s petition to over 1 million global supporters.
