Ambassador Cavanaugh Appointed Chairman of International Alert

University of Kentucky News:

Patterson School of Diplomacy and International Commerce Professor Carey Cavanaugh has been appointed chairman of the Board of Trustees of International Alert, a major London-based independent international peacebuilding charity. He succeeds British author, journalist and former government minister Chris Mullin. International Alert’s CEO Harriet Lamb said, “We are delighted to have Ambassador Carey Cavanaugh take on the chairmanship of Alert at this pivotal time. His leadership roles, bridging the worlds of government, academia and the nonprofit sector, made him an ideal candidate.”

Commenting on his appointment, Cavanaugh said: “We are witnessing today a calamity, with almost 70 million people having been forcibly displaced from their homes — a number greater than the population of the United Kingdom. Conflict in Syria, Afghanistan, Colombia, Congo, Myanmar, Ukraine and many other states has fostered this wave of human misery. These are the very places where International Alert is engaging local partners to advance peace. I am honored and excited to support and help direct the work of hundreds of Alert employees in this vital effort.”
