John Kerry launches ‘Scottish Global Dialogues’ with a speech on the Climate Crisis at the Signet Library, Edinburgh
In a speech that took inspiration from the Scottish Enlightenment John Kerry, Special Presidential Envoy for Climate, inaugurated ‘Scottish Global Dialogues’ at the Signet Library in Edinburgh.
The following quote is lifted from the WS Society’s own site:
“The event will launch an annual joint series of ‘Scottish Global Dialogues’ with Beyond Borders, to feature guests of international standing, held each year in the height of the Edinburgh Festivals. The series aims to promote non-partisan debate on international relations and global politics, in the interests of advancing citizenship and cultural exchange. The series is supported by the Scottish Council for Global Affairs.”
We are delighted to be partners in this event and are showing below a full recording of the event live-stream – note that there is nothing to see until the 7:50 mark.
