The students of the All-Party Parliamentary Group for Future Generations discussed their launch in an article for Huffington Post:
"Who is advocating for the human rights of children of the 22nd century?
Who is there to represent the interests of ‘generations not yet born’?
That’s why we recently mobilized academics, industry leaders, MPs and Peers to form a new All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) for Future Generations. Launched last week in Westminster, the APPG aims to combat “political short-termism”, and focus on extreme technological risks affecting the long-long term. "
