On Wednesday, April 23, the Victor Pinchuk Foundation and Hromadske.TV will livestream a lecture given by the internationally renowned reporter and columnist of The New York Times, the author of six bestselling books and winner of three Pulitzer Prizes Thomas L. Friedman. The event is held within the Public Lectures project of the Victor Pinchuk Foundation and will be moderated by the Ukrainian journalist and TV host Andriy Kulikov.
In his lecture ‘Brief Theory about Everything’ he will present his analysis of the big global trends of today, how they will affect business, labor markets, governance and education, and what that means worldwide and for Ukraine.
After the lecture Thomas L. Friedman will answer questions of audience which traditionally will be composed of students and young scholars of the leading Ukrainian universities, winners of the Victor Pinchuk Foundation scholarship programs, businessmen, diplomats and journalists.
As part of its Public Lectures project, since 2006 the Victor Pinchuk Foundation regularly invites leading politicians, thinkers and public figures to Ukraine to discuss challenges facing the world and Ukraine. By organizing such a dialogue between world leaders, experts and Ukrainian students, the Foundation wishes to contribute to fostering a new generation of responsible leaders.
