About World Diversity Leadership Summit:
Launched in 2004, the World Diversity Leadership Symposium is an important gathering of senior corporate, government and non-governmental organization (NGO) officials, focused on the complex challenges and opportunities related to global diversity management.
Michael R. Bloomberg, Mayor of the City of New York, in recognition of this important event, proclaims Wednesday, July 9th, 2008 in the City of New York: "World Diversity Leadership Day." It is only fitting that this year's World Diversity Leadership Summit is taking place in New York, a place that has always been strengthened by the Diversity of its residents. More than 200 languages are spoken on our streets, and more than one in three New Yorkers hail from foreign lands. In every facet of city Life -- from business, to the arts, to public service -- the range of cultures and viewpoints offered by New Yorkers helps maintain our city's role as an international center for finance, diplomacy, entertainment and culture.
The conference will cover relevant topics such as Global Diversity and Economic Impact; UN Gender Equality Experts Report; The 2008 New York Times Diversity Survey, The Boston Consulting Group Demographic Risk Management Report, Corporate Social Responsibility and Diversity; and Global Diversity in the Media.
