I'm watching the live stream from #OneSharedWorld #RiseOrFallTogether, "The OneShared World Interdependence Summit 2020". Lots of speakers, artists, and activists are lined up

"The world today faces a wake-up call. The question is: will we wake up?" Opening provocation at #OneSharedWorld by @JamieMetzl

"Because the core problem we face is systemic, our response needs to be systemic too. To safeguard our future, we need to build a new global operating system" - @JamieMetzl at #OneSharedWorld

Just starting: #OneSharedWorld "Preventing Future Pandemics" panel with David Nabarro, Kiran Mazumdar Shaw, Naveen Rao, and Michelle Williams

We have to reckon with three convulsions: biological convulsion, economic convulsion, and societal convulsion. The Covid pandemic teaches us that strategic investment is needed to improve the resilience and adaptability of all three systems - @HarvardChanDean at #OneSharedWorld

In response to the pandemic, we have to put science back in the driving seat - collecting, disseminating, and communicating key findings - Michelle Williams (@HarvardChanDean) at #OneSharedWorld

Next up at #OneSharedWorld: a panel on "Climate Correction" with Catherine Constantinides, Jess Fanzo, Eric Garcetti, and Enric Sala

"We have to embrace our global interdependence, and realise that we rise - or fall - together" - Los Angeles Mayor @ericgarcetti at #OneSharedWorld

We're suffering a triple whammy - growing global warming, losing parts of nature faster than ever, and the Covid-19 infection. The three issues are strongly connected - @Enric_Sala, author of "The Nature of Nature", at #OneSharedWorld

Food systems are intimately connected with both climate change and biological pandemics. What's more, bad diet is the number 1 cause of bad health and mortality worldwide - @jessfanzo at #OneSharedWorld urges greater care and attention to food systems

The next session at #OneSharedWorld could be the highlight of the whole event: "Beyond Westphalia and San Francisco: Building a New Pillar of Global Power Representing Our Common Aspirations as Humans"

"Some problems can only be solved if we think of 'power *with* others'" - at #OneSharedWorld @Joe_Nye advocates a different way of thinking about national interest, to recognise the global interdependence

"Good intentions without adequate means can lead to ethically bad consequences" - @Joe_Nye argues that many of our moral statements about US presidents and foreign policy are poorly thought through #OneSharedWorld goodreads.com/book/show/4424…

"A pressing paradox: There has never been a greater need to consider global interdependence, but the political leadership of many important countries takes a dismissive attitude towards collaboration" - Professor @rfalk13 at #OneSharedWorld

Building a network of networks to improve civil society: What can we learn from the experiences of some of the world's most successful networks? With leaders from Avaaz, Rotary International, Fox Office Exchange, and InterAction #OneSharedWorld

"What's important is no longer who you know; it's what you say" - key advice from @Ricken_Patel. And the network shouldn't try to top-down control everything that's said, but should allow ideas to emerge bottom-up - practical advice at #OneSharedWorld
