2nd Annual Meeting of Clinton global Initiative- 3 days, 215 commitments, $ 7.3 billion

The second Annual General was held in New York from September 20-22,2006. During his remarks, president Clinton thanked the participants for their efforts during the past three days and stressed the important role of individuals in solving the world’s most urgent problems.
“ Today, three billion people around the globe are trapped behind the bars of extreme poverty, of a lack of health care, of war and of environment devastation,” said President Clinton” It’s our job to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others. It’s our responsibility to cast off each other’s chains.”

Over a thousand leaders of business, government and non- governmental organizations attended this year’s meeting of CGI, in addition to nearly 50 current and former heads of state. Highlights include a commitment announced by First Lady Laura Bush to bring clean drinking water to 1,000 communities in sub-Saharan Africa, and Virgin Group CEO Richard Branson’s $3 billion commitment towards bio-fuel initiatives.
