Middle East and Africa Summit 2022

Global Overview

-

2022 has been a year of marked turmoil and turbulence; beginning with the Russian invasion of Ukraine and continuing with the shock to energy and food markets, stressed supply chains, rising global inflation, political upheaval, tensions in the Far East, and the near simultaneous downturn across financial assets. While the confluence of these forces represents unprecedented stresses on our global order, this intensity may also act as an accelerant of long-term structural change, for instance the reconfiguration of European energy markets, the enlargement of the NATO alliance, and intensified discussion of security arrangements in the western Pacific region. Join us for a panel discussion on the state of our world and opportunities to drive shared prosperity amidst the turmoil and turbulence.
