Dear fellow advocate for a thriving, just world,

Welcome to THE GLOBAL SUMMIT™, dedicated to uniting the world’s social, economic and environmental movements to ensure a sustainable future for all of us.

Launched in San Francisco in 2008, and road-tested in 2010, The Global Summit™ 2012 biennial will be held August 16-17, timed to coincide with the Summer Olympic Games in the heart of London’s square mile in the city center.

As part of our mission to advance new models of partnership, Empowerment WORKS serves the role of facilitating organization, co-developing each Summit with, and only with a global community of ‘Partners in Empowerment’ sharing core values of self-determination, transparency and inclusivity.

In demonstrating the power of mass collaboration in the global spotlight, The Global Summit 2012 is a timely opportunity to activate the critical solutions and people needed to address Humanity’s most pressing issues.

On behalf of Empowerment Works, The Global Summit 2012 organizing team and the communities that we serve, we look forward to your collaboration in nothing less than creating a new social impact legacy in Olympic history.

Thank you for being part of it,

Melanie St.James, MPA (Social Architect)
Executive Director, Empowerment WORKS
Executive Producer, The Global Summit
