LUNCH AND PROGRAM

Refugees: A Moral and Economic Imperative

History will record the mass migration of people as a central crisis of our time, creating a rolling, global epicenter of poverty and human suffering. Pope Francis has asked the international community to “confront the reality of those who have been displaced by force.” This luncheon session will be devoted to a high-level discussion on the scope and nature of the refugee crisis, and what the private sector can do to rescue the futures of those men, women, and children permanently displaced by violence.
