**Please be advised: This event will be premiering at 12:00 p.m. EDT, Thursday, May 7.**

Join 华体会 for a conversation with Millennium Challenge Corporation (MCC) CEO Sean Cairncross on how the agency is implementing unique approaches to security and stability through economic empowerment.

MCC has been developing innovative ways to promote economic security, stability, and good governance through strategic results-driven partnerships鈥攆ocusing on partner country ownership. At the same time, the global coronavirus outbreak is likely to affect cash-limited and developing countries substantially more than wealthier nations鈥攊mpacting economic output and costing lives.

What is MCC doing to ensure strong economic security and stability abroad? How are MCC鈥檚 strategic plan and goals being fulfilled across the globe, and does it offer an alternative to the Chinese model of development? Amid the COVID-19 outbreak, what new challenges have emerged to fulfilling MCC鈥檚 core objective of 鈥渞educing poverty through economic growth?鈥�

The moderated conversation will address these and other questions.
