Monday, December 5, 6.30-8.00pm
When and how do children develop compassion and a sense of social obligation that carries through to their adult lives? How do the various phases of our childhood influence our understanding of sympathy, charity, and morality? How can this be reinforced and how does this eventually translate into philanthropic actions in adulthood?
Join moderator Lukas Haynes, Executive Director of the David Rockefeller Fund, for a conversation on how today’s philanthropists are formed, their priorities, and their implications for today’s social and political landscape.
Panelists:
Paul Sullivan, Wealth Matters columnist for The New York Times and author of The Thin Green Line: The Money Secrets of the Super Wealthy
Dr. Gabriele Oettingen, Professor of Psychology, Psychology Department, New York University
This event is sponsored by the Center for Global Affairs at NYU SPS. More Information on CGA events here.
