Washington, DC– On Sunday, June 25, 2023, 1:00PM – 2:30PM EST, Citizens for Global Solutions (CGS) will convene a unique hybrid event to explore current concrete apertures for grassroots engagement to achieve foundational principles of democratic world federation and combat such critical global challenges as violations of international law and human rights, environmental degradation, and escalating armament.
The “Exploratory Summit” comes as CGS embarks on a new chapter, seeking innovative and ambitious solutions to current threats to inform advocacy by our Action Network.[1] At this summit, we invite subject matter experts and leading activists dedicated to our core causes and foundational values to share their perspectives on the contemporary means and methods for advocacy. Participants will have the opportunity to engage in discussion with thought leaders and join CGS’s action efforts following the summit.
Topics will include:
Supporting International Institutions through Informed Reform [Augusto Lopes-Claros]
Promoting Treaty-Based International Law [Kristin Smith]
Advancing Climate Justice and Disarmament as Components of World Federation [Alyn Ware]
Mobilizing the Next Generation through Youth Outreach and Intergenerational Approaches [Jacopo DeMarinis]
