We value the art of engagement by being actively involved in finding solutions for the world’s most pressing issues. At the Center, we regularly host forums involving diverse panels of experts and we invite the public to participate as the audience. This provides a base of interaction between the experts and the audience to establish possible solutions to issues like climate change, environment conservation, youth empowerment and food security.
