This program will shed light on how Stewart Udall used his communications skills, his training in law, his political acumen and influence, and his expansive vision to promote shared environmental values across borders. It will open with a presentation by Secretary Udall’s son, Senator Tom Udall (D-NM). That talk will be followed by two substantive keynotes on the theme of the program: Stewart Udall’s public and private work as an environmental diplomat. The first speaker, Stewart Udall's most recent biographer, Scott Einberger, will review Secretary Udall’s experiences in mitigating conflict by forging domestic and international linkages through pursuit of mutual environmental interests. The second speaker, The Honorable Diane Humetewa, U.S. District Judge, U.S. District Court of Arizona, will address Secretary Udall’s lifelong championing of American Indian Indigenous sovereignty.
The program will then turn to a moderated roundtable panel discussion featuring three individuals who will reflect on Secretary Udall’s legacy of environmental diplomacy. The panelists include Karletta Chief (Navajo), Associate Professor in the Department of Environmental Science at The University of Arizona; Jennifer Pitt, Colorado River Program Director for the National Audubon Society; and Kartikeya Singh, Deputy Program Director at the Netherlands-based SED Fund, and 2006 Udall Foundation Scholar. These panelists will offer reactions to points made by the speakers and respond to questions by the moderator and remote audience members, who will have an opportunity to submit questions to the panelists.
