_Presented in partnership with P&G, the first virtual event in this new series will take place on Thursday, May 21_ 

(New York, NY — May 20, 2020) — Today, TIME, in partnership with P&G, announced a new three-part series of _TIME 100 Talks,_ the live virtual event series that convenes leaders from every field to spotlight solutions to urgent global problems and encourage cross-disciplinary action. The new series will be dedicated to conversations on equality and inclusion in the age of the coronavirus pandemic.

Since launching on April 23, weekly installments of _TIME 100 Talks_ have focused on navigating the challenges of the pandemic and featured a range of speakers from immunologist **Dr. Anthony Fauci**, UNHCR Special Envoy **Angelina Jolie**, chef and humanitarian **José Andres**, musician **John Legend**, White House senior adviser **Jared Kushner**, and more.

Now, TIME is dedicating three upcoming summit-style _TIME 100 Talks_, which will take place on May 21st, June 11th, and June 25th, to hosting influential leaders for conversations focused on creating societies that are more resilient and more just.

“This new series of _TIME 100 Talks_ which will focus on the disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on marginalized communities is a continuation of TIME’s dedication to covering the unfinished fight for equality and a commitment in this moment to spotlighting these urgent issues to move us toward a more just world,” said **TIME editor in chief and CEO Edward Felsenthal**. 


“Crises like this show the cracks in society and significant inequalities that exist, and P&G is partnering with TIME to shine the light on those who are most affected while they serve others to keep this country going,” **said P&G Chief Brand Officer Marc Pritchard.** “We cannot allow equality and inclusion to take a step back because of the pandemic. Instead, we need to step forward and advance equality and inclusion as we restart and recover, and we see this partnership as an important way to inspire action.”

Speakers and performers for the _TIME 100 Talks_ event taking place on Thursday, May 21st from 1-3PM ET include: 

* **Katrín Jakobsdóttir**, Prime Minister of Iceland
* **Matt Damon**, actor, filmmaker and co-founder of Water.org and WaterEquity
* **Gary White**, CEO and co-founder of Water.org and WaterEquity
