New York's events

In cooperation with the Taskforce on Innovative International Financing for Health Systems, the Millennium Foundation will be part of the High-level event Investing in Our Common Future: Healthy Women, Healthy Children.

The event will be co-hosted by UK Prime Minister Gordon Brown and World Bank President Robert Zoellick, as a side meeting to the United Nations General Assembly. This event will take place from 3:00pm to 4:00pm in the Trusteeship Council Chamber, at the UN Headquarters, in New York.

The Voluntary Solidarity Contribution,  as a pioneering innovative finance mechanism, will be at the centre of the attention. To demonstrate how the support of the private sector has shaped this initiative, CEOs of our technical and commercial partners have been invited. The Foundation will benefit from support from the Task Force and the Secretary General, and the private sector partners will officially declare their support of the initiative. 

In conjunction with this event, the Millennium Foundation will host a cocktail reception after the United Nations ceremony to thank all its partners.
