At the International Zayed Award for Human Fraternity Majlis panel, ‘Humanitarian Response in Action: Leading with Courage, Compassion, and Integrity’, I emphasized the urgent need to globalize compassion.
For too long we have allowed power to define truth, profit to define values, and fear to define belonging. We have globalized markets, data, and the economy. But this is the time to break the inertia and inaction.
My message was simple and clear: Let us globalize compassion. I am not a teacher or preacher of compassion; I have made it my way of life.
Each of us is being summoned. It is our moral responsibility to respond to this call. The time to ignite your spark of compassion is now. Your time to act is now.
