Keynote Speaker
Her Excellency Razan Khalifa Al Mubarak
"Her Excellency Razan Khalifa Al Mubarak is a true environmental champion who has worked tirelessly over many years to preserve biodiversity and make the world a more sustainable place. She is an inspiring leader on climate and role model as the second woman to lead the IUCN in its 72-year history. She was also the youngest person to be appointed to lead an Abu Dhabi Government entity. We are especially delighted that our graduating students will hear her words of wisdom and encouragement at our tenth Commencement and in the UAE’s Year of Sustainability."
--NYU Abu Dhabi Vice Chancellor Mariët Westermann
