Twenty First Century Trust

"As globalization transforms how we relate to one another across national and professional boundaries, it is essential that future decision takers and opinion leaders from all walks of life have the opportunity to learn from one another and to test their ideas in an international and inter-disciplinary context. The Trust brings together the rising generation of leaders worldwide, now aged under 40, from government, business, NGOs, academe, the media and other sectors. Its conferences provide a forum where these exceptional individuals, who otherwise would not have a chance to meet, identify the major challenges and opportunities facing them and the world in the decades ahead...

"The Senior Fellows who lead each conference are among the most eminent in their fields. They have included Michael Ignatieff, Director, Carr Center for Human Rights Policy, Kennedy School of Government, Harvard (Senior Fellow for Media Power and Responsibility); Heizo Takenaka, Japanese Minister for Economic Policy (Asia-Pacific Economic and Security Scenarios for 2020); Dominique Möisi, Institut Français des Relations Internationales, Paris (Globalization: Challenges and Discontents); Ronald Dworkin, New York University and University College London (Genetics, Identity and Justice); the late Edward Said (Culture and Imperialism); Ambassador Olara Otunnu, United Nations, New York (Human Rights in International Relations); and Sir Marrack Goulding, former United Nations Under-Secretary-General (The International Community and its Role in Preventing, Managing and Resolving Conflict)."
