A global youth leadership summit to be held in Pittsburgh this fall announced today that former President Bill Clinton will be the keynote speaker.

The One Young World Summit expects more than 1,500 delegates representing more than 190 countries at the event Oct. 18-22.

At the summit, delegates debate and learn about issues such as global health and the environment. It is designed so that after it ends, delegates use what they have learned and the contacts they have made to work on projects to improve the areas where they live.

Mr. Clinton is expected to discuss the work of his William J. Clinton Foundation in seeking to improve health, education and small business opportunities in developing countries.
