About the Event
Join the Rotary Club for an open conversation with Kevin Melton about shifting peacebuilding models from public-sector reliance to private-sector integration. Drawing on his key role in shaping the U.S. Global Fragility Act (GFA), Kevin will lead a collaborative dialogue on:
Global Fragility Act Lessons: What worked, what failed, and where peace-building is headed next.
Private Sector & Capital: How companies can incorporate peace and stability into risk assessment, supply chains, and market entry.
Rotary's Role: Connecting local leaders, public institutions, and private capital for durable economic growth.
This session is designed as a dynamic Q&A and open dialogue rather than a formal presentation—bring your questions and perspectives!
