Ideally visitors will fall in love with my subjects, stay attached or gain interest in them, learn about their plight and consider ways they might help. Help ecosystems and their inhabitants, the planet itself, and, as a direct consequence - humanity.

It’s a privilege of a lifetime being able to bring to you what is essentially the realisation of my childhood dream and further to ask you to share it with others. Because in the end, the goals for me are awareness, education, and change, not aesthetically pleasing images

quote

The dialogue between cultures has forever existed. As a result of man’s urge and need to travel, to discover , to meet people, to share experiences, to buy and to sell, cultural dialogue unites by showing, by underling what we share despite our apparent differences.

So we return to the difficult and delicate question of what is the most fruitful role the Asians can play in the politics of East Africa. It will differ, of course, in each of the territories. Uganda is expected to be the first country of the three to achieve complete independence. Its population is overwhelmingly African and the way in which the African leaders there treat the Asian minorities should serve as a very useful guide to what will happen later in Tanganyika and Kenya

We are living in a time of vacuum, we are living in a time of search, and I do not believe that it is wealth, or military power, that will bring the Muslim world back to what you and other Muslims and I aspire for it to be. What will bring it back? Only one thing, the quality and the capability of the people of the Muslim world. That is what will bring it back

The pursuit of knowledge is not a threat to faith but its natural complement. As the philosopher Al-Kindi wrote more than a thousand years ago, “No one is diminished by the truth, rather does the truth ennoble all.”

quote

Graduands, my wish today is that you will know the joy of planting hope in people's lives, of building bridges of understanding, of venturing into the uncharted waters where new knowledge is discovered. May your futures be rich in challenges embraced and overcome. May you be bold amid uncertainty, and see your boldness rewarded

And those of you who know the history of Syria, the history of cities such as Aleppo, you will know how much they have contributed to the civilizations of Islam, to the practices of Islam, to the search for truth, not only within Muslim communities, but within Jewish communities and Christian communities.

quote

Global warming is not coming. It is already here, and the University of Central Asia, through its Mountain Societies Research Institute, is uniquely placed in the region to respond to the challenges of climate change

quote

I have been concerned about the way our institutions anticipate change. I have mentioned many times to you recently, the issue of the meritocratic environment in which today, much more in the future, your children will be living. Meritocracy does not apply only to the individual. Meritocracy applies to institutions, to countries

quote

Ladies and gentlemen, this forum, the World Government Summit, is a fantastic opportunity to raise our common ambitions, to share big ideas, and to inspire positive action in global city design to build a better, more harmonious, and more environmentally sustainable future for humanity and our planet.

quote

Giraffes and koalas are now endangered — animals that you and I never would have imagined 20 years ago would be endangered. For me, part of what I’m doing is just recording what we're losing.
