The SUNY-UWI Center for Leadership and Sustainable Development was officially launched on September 20, 2016
at the SUNY Global Center in New York. The Center builds on areas identified in previous UWI-SUNY agreements and includes research relevant to democratic participation, leadership, and governance, with a focus on solutions to specific problems constraining the achievement of the United Nation's Sustainable Development Goals, and also on serving groups that have faced barriers to equal opportunities.

The symposium, held at the SUNY Global Center in New York on Monday, February 13, 2017, aimed at increasing understanding of the issues and discussing possible solutions related to correspondent banking, attracted a range of finance and banking experts.
