A very special tribute to UN’s Ramu Damodaran
13 May 2021 @ 1:30 PM - 2:30 PM EDT
Free
Ramu has been a special friend and staunch supporter of NGOs around the world. In his position as the UN Deputy Director for Partnership & Public Engagement and the Chief of UN Academic Impact, he was responsible for countless helpful outreach and informational programs, including the UN Chronicle magazine. His earlier UN posts included Chief of Civil Society Service, the Departments of Peacekeeping and special Political Questions, as well as the Executive Office of the Secretary-General.
This appreciation party will be an opportunity to express our gratitude for Ramu’s inspirational world view and long-time commitment to assisting NGOs in their partnership with the UN. Emulating his leadership, #UNwithCivilSociety will continue to strive to accomplish the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030.
