—Priya Lakhani, Founder and CEO of Solver Century Tech

From the main stage, a powerful presentation from Dr. Phillip Atiba Goff on addressing the racism behind police violence. Plus a preview of Solve's 2021 Global Challenge working themes, which you will have a chance to help shape later today.

Join Solve Members for a facilitated discussion around Solve’s 2021 Economic Prosperity working theme. We’ll get to know others in the Solve community working in this space, share examples of what’s effective and what’s needed, and build the start of a year-long Challenge coalition.

Solve believes that everybody should have a place at the problem-solving table, including (and especially) young people. If we want to build a more inclusive, equal, and sustainable tomorrow, we must inspire, guide, and support the next generation to become problem-solvers and social innovators today. To that end, Solve will bring together young people under 24 years old, as well as education providers and other cross-sector leaders and organizations, to design, launch, and run a global Youth program. This session is a facilitated community discussion to start building this program.
