Making Human Development Gains Last


Thursday, June 26

As we launch Ecological Footprint reports on Africa and China, please join Global Footprint Network and Camfed (Campaign for Female Education) for an evening of conversation about how girls’ education can help sustain the health of the planet.

How can we lift people out of poverty in a world of increasingly limited resources? How can the planet sustain the economic progress of China? Join us for an invitation-only gathering of leaders in the human development and philanthropic communities, and hear how these two leaders envision women’s empowerment and ecological stewardship as the keys to lasting human well-being.
