- Jacqueline Miller represented PFC in Washington, D.C. for the official five-year culmination of the State of the World Forum, which attracted global leaders. Mikhail Gorbachev, former President of the Soviet Union, founded the State of the World Forum. 50 individuals from civil society, the World Bank and the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International convened on April 23 to discuss the Commission. The intent of the meeting was to solicit feedback and suggestions as how the Commission could best contribute bridging the divide between the many voices in the globalization debate, and to proceed with establishing a common agenda that would foster a constructive spirit of dialogue and inquiry. Co-Chair Mikhail Gorbachev addressed the meeting along with John Sweeney, President of the AFL-CIO, and Co-Chair Lori Wallach, Director of Public Citizen Trade Watch.
