Shakira had a speech on Monday at Oxford University.
She discussed world politics. In her opinion, education is the key to end global poverty. Shakira said that world education would become more important than world domination.
“That is how I want the youth of 2060 to see us: That our mission for global peace consisted of sending 30,000 educators to Afghanistan, not 30,000 soldiers,” she said.
“That in 2010, world education became more important than world domination.
“I strongly believe that the best is yet to come. I cannot subscribe to the idea that the older days were better days.”
After the speech Shakira, surrounded by students and signed autographs.
To be standing right there on the stage where so many other important social and political figures have spoken in the past — it was just a great honor,” she said.
