    Dear Colleagues,

    It is with great pleasure that we invite you to join us
    for the inaugural Forum for Global Challenges, which
    will take place at The ICC Birmingham on Tuesday 3rd
    – Thursday 5th May 2022.

    The Forum has been convened by the Institute for Global Innovation at
    the University of Birmingham, a global top 100 university, in collaboration
    with the World Bank, UNESCO, the Confederation of British Industry, the
    Thomson Reuters Foundation, the West Midlands Combined Authority,
    the Association of Commonwealth Universities, and UK Research and
    Innovation. Through the Forum, we will identify, generate and share
    solutions to some of the world’s most pressing challenges. Our programme
    focuses on creating multi-sector partnerships that can create real change,
    tackling the critical issues of climate change and inequality.

    An innovative hybrid programme will bring together delegates in
    Birmingham, at a number of international satellite hubs, and through a
    virtual platform which enables participation from anywhere in the world.
    Our agenda will focus on showcasing and designing solutions, including
    specific sessions on the green economy, sustainable cities, transport futures,
    education, employment, food security, and ecosystem restoration and
    gender equality.

    Our Keynote speakers are thought leaders, visionaries and pioneers on
    solutions for the global challenges, including policy makers, industry and
    business, academic and the third sector.

    I wish to invite you to partner with us to show your commitment to global
    innovation and change, and to help further education and perception
    around environmental issues. The partnership opportunities provide
    captivating content, engagement and advertising prospects. From
    involvement in the programme through symposia, to educational grant
    support to fund academics and future leaders from low and middle-income
    countries, there is an array of possibilities to suit your CSR goals and to
    contribute to a more connected world.

    This prospectus should provide all the basic information needed but please
    feel free to discuss with us a bespoke package. We very much look forward
    to welcoming you to Birmingham in 2022.

    With best wishes,

    Professor Hisham Mehanna

    Deputy Pro-Vice-Chancellor (Interdisciplinary)
