Submit your MDG question to the State Department
This Thursday, our CEO and President David Lane will be joining USAID Administrator Rajiv Shah in the U.S. State Department’s Conversations with America, a live video discussion series on foreign policy and global issues.
This week’s conversation will focus on achieving the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). With the U.N. Summit on the MDGs just around the corner, this is the perfect time to chime in with any last-minute questions on MDG challenges, opportunities and next steps.
To submit a question, head over to the State Department’s blog, DipNote, and write up your question in their comments section. Or, Tweet it to @StateDept.
The discussion will take place online on Thursday at 10:15 AM (EDT). We’ll post up the video stream right here on the ONE Blog.
I hope you’re excited as we are — past Conversations with America participants include Ambassador Holbrooke, Ambassador Eric Goosby and Special Representative to Muslim Communities Farah Pandith. We’re honored to be participating in this event, so join us if you can.
