About us
Global Dashboard is edited by Alex Evans and David Steven.
Alex Evans is a Non-Resident Fellow at the Center on International Cooperation (CIC) at New York University, where he runs CIC’s work on climate change and global public goods. He was seconded to the UN in 2007 as part of the team coordinating the Secretary-General’s high level event on climate change. He is also leading a joint CIC - Chatham House project on the international implications of rising food prices. From 2003 to 2006, Alex was Special Adviser to Hilary Benn, then the UK Secretary of State for International Development.
David Steven is a policy analyst, strategic consultant and researcher. He is Managing Director of River Path Associates where he specialises in international responses to global risks, the development of communications and influencing strategies, and intercultural dialogue. David’s research on international development has been published by journals such as Science and World Economics. His paper on Foreign Office reform was published in September 2007 by Manchester University Press as part of its Alternative Comprehensive Spending Review.
David and Alex are currently running a Demos project entitled The New Public Diplomacy, through which they will publish a pamphlet later in the spring, and are developing a new project on the resilience of international systems. Joint publications include Climate Change: the state of the debate, published by the London Accord; and Fixing the UK’s Foreign Policy Apparatus: A Memo to Gordon Brown. In April 2008, they were commissioned by 10 Downing Street to present a paper on multilateralism and global risks to heads of state at the Progressive Governance Summit.
