Jacinda Ardern Takes on New Roles in Earthshot Prize and Combating Online Extremism

Former New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has been appointed as a trustee of the Earthshot Prize, a prestigious environment award created by Prince William to fund projects that aim to save the planet. Ardern's "life-long commitment to supporting sustainable and environmental solutions" and her experience would "bring a rich infusion of new thinking to our mission," said Prince William. Ardern attended the Earthshot Prize Innovation Summit in New York in September 2022 where she spoke on behalf of Prince William.
