We the Peoples 2026: Reflections at the UN Foundation's Global Leadership Awards

Reflection speaker during the awards dinner, identified as President and CEO of The Africa Center — not an award recipient

Martin Kimani, President and CEO of The Africa Center, delivered a reflection on the United Nations' origin story and lessons for the global community during the UN Foundation's "We the Peoples" Global Leadership Awards dinner in New York on April 8, 2026 — an annual event recognizing individuals whose work embodies the UN Charter's founding principles. Kimani was not one of the evening's award recipients; his remarks were a separate part of the program.
