believes in inclusivity, and that all rights are human rights. With Martin at

the helm, the Ricky Martin Foundation has educated, protected and advocated for

vulnerable communities for over two decades and has hopes for the world to be a

better place for children for all generations to come. The foundation has long

been recognized as a leading force in the fight against human trafficking, as

well as for its immediate humanitarian response following natural disasters

both in Puerto Rico and around the world.

Joining the Summit as a guest speaker, Mr. Martin comments: "I look forward to

joining the mission at Global Citizen Forum and being part of an important

event that is helping shape the future for the next generation. With our

aligned vision, our alliance to raise funds for the Ricky Martin Foundation

will come at a critical time in the world where we need to unite"

Human Metamorphosis is the first chapter of the much anticipated 3-year GCF

Annual Summit in Ras Al Khaimah. It is set to be an empowering and immersive

experience curated to offer an authentic expression of global citizenship

catalyzed by the evolution of humanity and will cover a diverse range of topics

— from global economics and the escalating refugee crisis, to empowering female

leadership and unlocking technological advances for human health and wellness.

Talimka Yordanova, CEO of the Global Citizen Forum, said: "We are thrilled to

welcome an extraordinary line-up of dignitaries, delegates, and attendees in

Ras Al Khaimah for this year's Annual Summit which will catalyze profound

discussions that advance human progress for all individuals across the globe —

and truly value the incredible work driven by the Ricky Martin Foundation which

will further allow us to extend the reach and impact of our mission."  

In addition to raising funds for the Ricky Martin Foundation, the GCF Gala will

feature a fundraiser auction to support UNHCR projects across the globe, as

well as the Global Gift Foundation. Last year, the Gala honored Eva Longoria

underprivileged communities and her commitment to change the narrative on their

untapped potential.
