Headquarters in New York City. Nearly 500 Lions from over 30 countries traveled to New York to meet with U.N. leaders for the day-long summit. “Lions have worked alongside the United Nations for seventy years to promote the health, safety and well-being of people around the world,” said Lions Clubs International President Joe Preston. “I’m happy that we can come together once again to discuss solutions to the challenges we’ll face as we work toward a brighter future.” As a part of this year’s theme of Children in Need, Lions and U.N. leaders addressed issues affecting youth around the world. From drug prevention education, to vision health and access to education in times of crisis, Lions joined together to discuss ways to positively impact some of the most vulnerable populations on the planet. “The United Nations stands with [Lions] as you work to improve the lives of young children,” said Cristina Gallach, Under-Secretary-General for Communications and Public Information at the U.N. “The world faces multiple conflicts … but ours is also an era for a safer, more prosperous, equitable and sustainable future for all.” Lions also discussed strategies to continue championing important humanitarian causes in support of the U.N.’s Millennium Development Goals. Additionally, Lions were joined by more than 20 U.N. ambassadors, including the Honorable Macharia Kamau of Kenya, who led a discussion on civil service’s role within the 2015 Sustainable Development Goals of ending extreme poverty by 2030.
