SPEAKER

CHRISTIAN SIRIANO

DESIGNER


Siriano is a member of the Council of Fashion Designers of America and a mentor on Bravo’s Project Runway. Since launching his own label in 2008, he has dressed a diverse array of public figures—including Lizzo, Lady Gaga, Michelle Obama and Billy Porter—and been an outspoken advocate for inclusivity in fashion. In March, his team began making cloth masks for front-line health workers from his Manhattan studio.

SPEAKER

Dr. Pardis Sabeti

COMPUTATIONAL BIOLOGIST


Sabeti is a professor at Harvard University, a member of the Broad Institute, and the Principal Investigator at the Sabeti Lab. In 2015, in recognition of key breakthroughs made during the Ebola outbreak—including real-time DNA sequencing in the outbreak’s early stages—Sabeti was named to the TIME100. Now, she and her team at the Sabeti Lab continue to investigate viral genetics. The lab’s findings may have implications for the fight against COVID-19.

SPEAKERS

FEEDING AMERICA CEO

Claire Babineaux-Fontenot

Babineaux-Fontenot is the CEO of Feeding America, a U.S.-based network of 200 food banks and 60,000 food pantries and meal programs. In 2019, Feeding America distributed over 4 billion meals. Now, as the charity’s food banks report an influx in demand due to COVID-19 shutdowns across the country, the organization is leveraging partnerships and collaborating on high-profile fundraisers—including the Feeding America Comedy Festival, which featured comedians such as Eddie Murphy and Tina Fey—to feed the hungry.

CHAIR of the Board of Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance

Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala

Okonjo-Iweala is the former Finance Minister of Nigeria, a special envoy of the African Union, and one of the world’s most influential voices on child immunization. In 2016, after being named to the TIME100 in recognition of her work in Nigeria, the development economist was named chair of the board of Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, the international organization that helps vaccinate almost half of children globally. In recent weeks, the organization has received new pledges of funding from a wide array of governments and entities—including Italy, Japan, The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, and TikTok—highlighting its expected role in immunizing the world against COVID-19.
