Partnerships With Businesses For A Better Type of Globalization

Oct. 1, 2009

Special Representative Elizabeth Bagley addressed the theme of How the Private Sector Fits with the Administration’s Foreign Policy Agenda at the BCLC Summit, stating, “I believe that the direction globalization takes in the years to come will largely depend on the decisions made by people in this room and leaders like you all over the world. And I think that requires some smart strategies about how governments and corporations can work together towards more successful, sustainable, and equitable business, and thus a better world for all of us.”
