Christian Aid's re-scheduled annual lecture this year will be given by Rt Hon David Lammy MP, the Shadow Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs.
The lecture - A Force for Good: Co-operating Across Borders in an Age of Authoritarians - will be followed by a conversation with Christian Aid's chair and former Archbishop of York, Dr John Sentamu.
In his lecture, the Rt Hon David Lammy MP will argue that the UK has a moral duty to return to multilateral engagement to tackle the three greatest challenges the world is facing: climate, conflict and famine.
Patrick Watt, Christian Aid’s Chief Executive, said: “We’re delighted that David Lammy is delivering this year’s lecture. It will be an excellent opportunity for our supporters and friends to hear from one of the UK’s most influential politicians.”
