The BBC is planning a special week of programmes to run in December dedicated to understanding and exploring the world through the eyes of the next generation.

If you are under 18 we want to hear from you.

What do you think are the most important world issues today?
What do you think about most?
What has the biggest impact on your life?

Tell us about your real experiences and how they affect you. If you've got pictures and audio, we'd like to see and hear that too.

As well as publishing a selection of your stories online, with your help, we'll turn the best ones into programmes and online specials for the Generation Next season.
