Thomas Law encontra Bill Clinton na Clinton Global Initiative

O fundador do Ibrawork, Thomas Law, e sua esposa, Ana, compareceram à recepção da Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) na cidade de Nova York, nesta segunda-feira (23).

Na ocasião, Thomas representou a Ordem dos Advogados do Brasil, seção São Paulo (OAB/SP) e a AMPPESP – Associação de Municípios de Pequeno Porte do Estado de São Paulo.

“A CGI é uma organização que ajuda a definir a agenda anual de desenvolvimento internacional desde 2005 e provou que os maiores desafios globais podem ser resolvidos por meio da comunidade, colaboração e comprometimento. Foi uma alegria estar com o presidente Bill Clinton, a secretária Hillary Clinton e a Dra. Chelsea Clinton”, disse Thomas.

O convite ao fundador do Ibrawork foi feito por Gregg Milne, CEO da CGI; Jon Davidson, chefe de gabinete do presidente Clinton; e Maggie Biringer, diretora de comunidade da CGI; Samuel Montana e Douglas Smith.

“Quando indivíduos com ideias semelhantes se reúnem, sua paixão coletiva e visão compartilhada podem impulsionar esforços globais notáveis. Ao reunir suas diversas habilidades, recursos e perspectivas, eles podem enfrentar desafios complexos como mudanças climáticas, pobreza e desigualdade de forma mais eficaz. Essas colaborações podem transcender fronteiras, unindo pessoas de diferentes culturas e origens em uma causa comum”, acrescentou Thomas. Ele disse ainda que Ibrawork, OAB/SP e AMPPESP estão ansiosos para se tornarem parceiros e sediar a CGI no Brasil.
