How can nations with natural resources create opportunity for their youngest citizens? Two Eurasian nations are leading the way.

Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan, both endowed with substantial oil, gas, and mineral resources, represent emerging examples of countries that aim to leverage natural-resource wealth in nationwide efforts to develop human capital. Both are innovating sovereign wealth–linked savings mechanisms that build assets for children to invest in higher education and other priorities.

On November 11, two distinguished guests will share their insights on the groundbreaking strategies for human development at the sunset of the carbon era. Join us to learn about Kazakhstan’s pioneering experience, the dynamics of emerging policy in Azerbaijan, and lessons for new initiatives seeking to invest in their youngest citizens.

Lunch will be provided.
