Own words
At the Annual Meeting, Nelson Mandela, anti-apartheid leader and head of the African National Congress (ANC), who had been released from prison two years earlier, made a joint appearance – the first outside South Africa – with President F. W. de Klerk and Chief Minister of KwaZulu, Mangosuthu Buthelezi.
The ANC had stood for the nationalization of banks, mines and certain strategic industries, but during his discussions with other leaders at Davos, Mandela reconsidered. “They changed my views altogether"
Young global leaders
In 1992, the Forum launched a new community, the Global Leaders for Tomorrow (GLTs), composed of 200 young leaders from business, politics, academia, the arts and the media, all of them under 43 years of age and well established through their achievements and positions of influence. The GLTs, who would hold their own Summits, sometimes in conjunction with the Annual Meeting in Davos, would be reconstituted in 2003 as The Forum of Young Global Leaders (YGLs).
