About the Global Leadership Forum

q       Professor Adel Safty, the founding UNESCO Leadership Chair, founded
the Global Leadership Forum to promote a multidisciplinary and multicultural
conception of leadership, when he was Head of UN Mission in Amman, and
Director of the UNU Leadership Academy in the 1990s. 

q       The Global Leadership Forum emphasises an inclusive approach to
leadership in the public policy arena, the private sector,
inter-governmental and non-governmental organisations, in educational
institutions, and in citizens' associations. It seeks to promote Value
Leadership by emphasising the interconnectedness of peace, democracy and
development, on the one hand, and the relationship between human development
and leadership in whatever field, on the other hand.

q       The GLF has been sponsored by the UN, the World Bank, the UNESCO,
several governments, private sector corporations, and educational
institutions including the university of Bahcesehir, the Centre for Creative
Leadership, Greensboro, North Carolina, USA, and the International
Partnership for Service-Learning and Leadership, New York.

q       Over the years the GLF has brought together distinguished political
leaders, senior representatives of inter-governmental organisations such as
the UN and the World Bank, distinguished scholars of public policy and of
management, corporate and business leaders, students, and representatives of
various governments from all over the world, and members of civil society
organisations.
