Concordia Live Webinar on Global Refugee Cities
Global Refugee Cities: When Going Home is Not an Option, a New Home is Needed
IN PARTNERSHIP WITH HENLEY & PARTNERS, CONCORDIA GLOBAL PATRON MEMBER
JUNE 2, 2023 | DIGITAL
It’s crucial that refugees be recognized for the unique skills and talents they bring — an untapped resource, diligence, and human ingenuity readily available to work, to produce, and to create. In the recent Concordia webinar our panelists discussed the quest to establish the first free Global City for Refugees – a city that has the business pace and rule of law ethos of Singapore, and the modernity and space of Dubai — and well-managed investments that in addition to delivering a second chance for refugees, lead to increased productivity, a growing GDP to the host country, returns to private stakeholders, and domiciles for anyone who chooses to make them their new home.
Panelists:
Dr. CHRISTIAN H. KAELIN, TEP, FIMC - Founder and Chairman, Andan Foundation;
MICHAEL MØLLER - Member, Board of the Geneva Science and Diplomacy Anticipator Foundation; Senior Adviser, Macro Advisory Partners; Distinguished Fellow, Geneva Graduate Institute in Geneva; Member, Executive Board, Kofi Annan Foundation; Member, Board of One Young World;
MIKAEL RIBBENVIK CASSAR - Former Director General of the Swedish Migration Agency (SMA); Member, Advisory Committee, Andan Foundation.
