An idea is only as powerful as the impact it inspires. That’s why we are on the ground, across the globe, cultivating the local and regional leaders driving global movements. Drawing on the expertise of our fellows, partners, and the broader Aspen Institute network, we leverage Aspen’s convening power to bring together leaders from government, business, philanthropy, civil society, and multilateral institutions. Through trusted and candid dialogue, we foster collaboration, spark new ideas, and advance solutions to pressing global challenges.
AGI advances global health and development by strengthening local leadership, expanding connections to influential networks, facilitating trust-based dialogue, and co-designing convenings that foster collaboration and generate solutions to emerging challenges.
