As world leaders gather in New York City for the United Nations General Assembly, a new event takes a different approach to some of the leading issues of today.

Attracting high level participants, The Global Creative Leadership Summit brings together the business world, artists, scientists and entrepreneurs - as well as politicians, to find new ways to address issues ranging from globalisation to the environment.

Riz talks to Louise Blouin MacBain the founder of the Summit to get a first hand account of how unconventional partnerships can help build a better world. 

Amir Dossal, Executive Director of the UN Office for Partnerships, also joins the program.
