CDRS video team supports Columbia's ongoing World Leaders Forum

It’s been a very busy couple of weeks for us in Video Services. In addition to the move into our new address, we’re now headlong into the Fall semester, and as expected, videotaping requests have been pouring in. We’re always happy to assist the greater Columbia community—and at a university like ours there is never a shortage of conferences, lectures, and symposia begging to be videotaped! This year, as in previous years, we were once again thrilled to be involved with the Columbia University World Leaders Forum. Coinciding with the UN General Assembly, the World Leaders Forum invites heads of state from all over the globe to speak on campus. Some of this year’s participants included President Cristina Fernández de Kirchner of Argentina, Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva of Thailand, and Prime Minister Madhav Kumar Nepal of the Republic of Nepal, as well as a special keynote address given by former Secretary-General of the United Nations, Kofi Annan. You can learn more about the WLF (and watch the full videos) by visiting the World Leaders Forum website.
