He has served in high-level positions with some of the most esteemed organizations around the world, leading innovative efforts to combat religious intolerance among various communities, including on college campuses throughout the United Kingdom. Furthermore, due to his unique expertise in his field, Mr. Klein is regularly invited to speak as a lecturer at prestigious conferences and panels, and has himself organized several groundbreaking programs and conferences in efforts to teach and engage young leaders about the tools needed to combat religious intolerance and bring people of different origins and faiths together in a meaningful way.
