<p class="MsoNormal"
style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">“The
Annual Meeting 2015 will provide a
platform for over 50 initiatives that
are currently being led by the Forum,
with the aim of contributing positive,
transformative change to the global
agenda, as well as those of industry,
business and the world’s regions.
These include a public-private
initiative to help achieve zero net
tropical deforestation caused by key
agricultural commodities by 2020; an
endeavour to build a broad-based,
multilateral global architecture for
governing the internet; and the
Forum’s Gender Parity Taskforces,
which work with governments worldwide
to improve economic opportunity for
the female half of the population.”<o:p></o:p></p>
