Trudeau says in the news release that he is looking forward to “contributing his experience” and working with other leaders to “consider how governments can respond to change and build a more hopeful, inclusive and prosperous future for everyone.”


“In the decade that I was prime minister, the world went through profound change both geopolitically and technologically, which fundamentally reshaped our world,” Trudeau said.



Blavatnik School dean Ngaire Woods said Trudeau brings “a wealth of experience, forged through a decade of public service” which will be beneficial to students.



“Our students are the public leaders of tomorrow, and the opportunity to learn directly from those who have navigated the complexities of government … is invaluable,” Woods said in the release. 



Trudeau is expected to visit the school later this month.
