Virtual London Symposium featuring Dame Karen Pierce DCMG, British Ambassador to the United States

The Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy invites you to the 17th Annual and First Virtual London Symposium with Dame Karen Pierce DCMG, British Ambassador to the United States, as keynote speaker.

Dean Rachel Kyte and Ambassador Karen Pierce will dig beneath the rhetoric of the UK and US “special relationship” to explore their shared interests in a special year. The UK’s presidency of the G7 and the UN climate talks in Glasgow present an opportunity, post-Brexit, to convey “Global Britain”. The Biden administration has declared to the world that it is “back”. How will their relationship shape global priorities from health diplomacy in managing the global response to COVID to the economic recovery to China’s emergent power to the need for urgent climate action?
