United Nations Work
In October 2003, Cedza was appointed Co-chair for the World Youth Peace Summit.
In June 2004, Cedza was recruited by the United Nations Development Programme to participate in the first Pan African Youth Leadership Summit held in Dakar, Senegal focused on achieving Millennium Development Goals in Africa. Subsequently he was appointed as a spokesman for that campaign and has represented his continent in youth leadership conferences (e.g. UN's World Youth Peace) in Japan, Bosnia and Canada with other young leaders to seek peaceful resolutions to regional and global conflicts and to promote tolerance between cultures and faiths.
After September 11, 2001, Cedza began a speaking tour throughout the U.S. that promotes global forgiveness, compassion, and the use of dialogue - instead of violence – as a powerful tool for conflict resolution. To date, Cedza has spoken to more than fifty non-profit organizations and academic institutions with audiences ranging from 200-14,000 people. He especially seeks to inspire young people, speaking on youth empowerment and leadership. Through his 3 Principles of Success, Cedza encourages youths to realize that with the right attitude they can overcome difficult challenges.
