IF THE WORLD WERE A VILLAGE
Based on the best selling book by the same name, If the World Were a Village is a 30 minute special that delivers an important message using a magical metaphor: what if the world were a village of just 100 people...
The special tells us who we are, where we live, how fast we are growing, what languages we speak, what religions we practice and more. So come and learn about our global village. What you find may surprise you!
Coinciding with UNICEF's International Children's Day of Broadcasting, If the World Were a Village debuted on December 11, 2005 in seven countries, including Germany, Spain, Brazil, the United States, and Canada.
