WASHINGTON, April 28, 2017 /3BL Media/- Advance solutions and make a sustainable impact by identifying discreet, solvable problems within the Sustainable Development Goals (Global Goals). Laura Asiala, Vice President of Public Affairs at PYXERA Global, will speak at the Global Issues Engagement Council at the United Nations Foundation this Friday, April 28. She will discuss the solvable problems inside the Global Goals, how partnership is vital to scaling and sustaining the solutions identified, and immediate outcomes of the Global Engagement Forum: Live.

“We’re happy to meaningfully contribute to the dialogue taking place within the United Nations Foundation on the value—and the challenges—of cross-sector collaboration to advance the Global Goals,” said Laura Asiala. 

Leading with tri-sector partnership is the approach PYXERA Global takes to the Global Goals, the focus of the Global Engagement Forum: Live in early April. The Forum convened 250 leaders, innovators, and experts on three discreet problems. Over a two-day convening participants dove into each problem, the resources available, partners, strategies needed to bring these ideas to fruition.

The Global Issues Engagement Council is an invitation-only group that brings together leading organizations from the public, private, and nonprofit space. The Council explore the challenges and opportunities facing these sectors, identify outstanding examples of social good initiatives and what they can teach us, and set the agenda for ongoing collaboration to help us succeed at the intersection of profit and purpose.
