  • The Carter Center Atlanta, Georgia
    LEADERSHIP PROFILE Chief Executive Officer The Carter Center Atlanta, Georgia “I am excited and energized about the next chapter of The Carter Center. Our most significant accomplishments are yet to come.” --President Jimmy Carter A COMPELLING OPPORTUNITY The Carter Center is a global leader in human rights, focused on peace, health and alleviation of human suffering. Founded in 1982 by former President Jimmy Carter and Rosalynn Carter, The Carter Center has saved and enhanced countless lives in over 80 countries. The Center seeks to prevent and resolve conflicts, enhance freedom and democracy, and improve health. It receives over $300 million a year in cash, pledges and in-kind support. Today the world faces unprecedented challenges to human rights, peace and health. Political polarization, eroding democratic principles, climate change, human migration, wars and human rights violations are proliferating. Addressing these and other significant issues calls for fresh approaches and adaptive strategies. The Carter Center is poised to enter a new era of impact. The Center is transitioning from a founder-led organization to one that is guided by the founders’ principles. The next CEO will build on a strong foundation, focusing the Center’s unique capacities and principles on critical current and emerging issues. “We must adjust to changing times and still hold to unchanging principles.” President Carter in his inaugural address The Carter Center CEO Leadership Profile, October 2019 Page 2 of 6 The next CEO will lead The Carter Center forward in ways that make the greatest possible difference. Building on the significant progress made by previous CEOs, Ambassador (ret.) Mary Ann Peters, CEO since 2014, has continued to strengthen the Center internally and externally and prepare it for the next phase of contribution.

  • Climate Action Call
    Scientists say that we face a climate emergency. We need decisive action in the next 10 years to put us on a transformative pathway in line with the targets of the Paris Agreement, including efforts to limit temperature rise to 1.5°C. We must act immediately to get on track for a healthy, fair and liveable future. This will not only reduce devastating impacts of climate change but also bring major economic and social benefits, attract new investments, create new quality jobs and limit health damages. The European Parliament elections and subsequent changes in the leadership of the European Commission will shape the politics of the European Union for the next five years, a crucial period for climate action where emissions need to decline fast, targets need to be strengthened and ambitious action needs to be implemented. The new Parliament and the new Commission must address growing concerns about climate change and make climate action a top priority for Europe. Therefore, we call upon the new European Parliament, the new European Commission and all EU Member State governments to: 1. Commit to accelerate actions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 2030 and reach net zero emissions as soon as possible. The world is not on track to keep temperature rise to 1.5°C. We support the call from United Nations Secretary General ​António Guterres​, upon all leaders to come to his special UN Climate Summit in September with additional commitments that will lead to halving global emissions by 2030 and achieving net zero by 2050. By the Summit, EU leaders ​should agree ​to reach climate neutrality in line with the EU’s fair share of the effort to achieve net zero global emissions by 2050.

  • The Elders and the Carter Center Joint Convening with Diaspora Palestinians November 19, 2020, Via Zoom Summary Report
    The Elders and The Carter Center Joint Convening with Diaspora Palestinians November 19, 2020, via Zoom Summary Report On November 19, 2020, The Carter Center and The Elders jointly hosted an online consultation with “Diaspora” Palestinian civil society leaders, analysts, and human rights workers based in the Middle East, Europe, and the United States. This was the fifth joint convening in a series of similar consultations with Palestinians and Israelis. Former Algerian Foreign Minister Lakhdar Brahimi participated on behalf of The Elders. The session sought to explore the status of the Palestinian identity and national movement and the role of the diaspora and international organizations such as The Carter Center and The Elders in promoting peace, Palestinian human rights, and an end of occupation. Almost all of the participants rejected the idea that Palestinian identity was under threat. Rather, participants highlighted the disintegration of the national movement and the exclusion of refugees and younger Palestinians from decision-making as the most urgent problems. Along these lines, participants pointed to the lack of representative national leadership working to advance Palestinian interests. They said filling the vacuum should be a priority. At least one participant suggested either reinvigorating the Palestine Liberation Organization or creating a new structure. However, the discussion focused more on diagnosing the problem than on brainstorming solutions. Many participants pointed to the deep geographic fragmentation and divisions among Palestinians. The power imbalance between Palestinians and Israelis, and the Oslo era’s accommodation of that imbalance, were also mentioned as primary causes of the disintegration of the national project. It was clear that none of the participants felt the Palestinian Authority offered a way forward.
