NEW YORK, Nov. 19, 2020 /PRNewswire/ --  We Are All Human Foundation (WAAH), a nonprofit foundation dedicated to promoting diversity and inclusion, today announced it will host the third annual Hispanic Leadership Summit virtually from December 7-9, gathering top Hispanic leaders, organizations and community allies. The summit will use the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) as a framework to develop a strategic shared agenda to support Hispanic community advancement for the next 10 years.

The summit will convene leadership across various industries and organizations to recognize this notable moment in history, calling them to join forces to create tangible goals followed by collective action to empower the Hispanic community, which has been disproportionately impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic this year.

The Hispanic Star – a coalition of organizations that serves as a unification platform for the Hispanic community – will also present findings from a new survey conducted by H Code, the largest Hispanic digital media company in the U.S., that gained insights on the perception of Hispanics in the workplace by Hispanics. Following the summit, the Hispanic Star will work to advance the Hispanic lens of the Sustainable Development Goals and advocate for a change of perception of the Hispanic community.
