Description

A very special opportunity to join David Miliband, President and CEO of the International Rescue Committee, for lunch at Nomad, in New York City. David can provide compelling insight on the current state of the world, based on his unique position of serving at both the highest level of government and at the very centre of the humanitarian world.

David Miliband is the President and CEO of the International Rescue Committee. He oversees the agency’s relief and development operations in over 40 countries, its refugee resettlement and assistance programs throughout the United States and the IRC’s advocacy efforts in Washington and other capitals on behalf of the world’s most vulnerable people.

Miliband had a distinguished political career in the United Kingdom for over 15 years. From 2007 to 2010, he served as the youngest Foreign Secretary in three decades, driving advancements in human rights and representing the United Kingdom throughout the world. As Secretary of State for the Environment in 2005-2006 he pioneered the world’s first legally binding emissions reduction requirements. His accomplishments have earned him a reputation, in former President Bill Clinton's words, as "one of the ablest, most creative public servants of our time". As the son of refugees, he brings a personal commitment to the IRC's work.
