office: One is the UN's Office of the Secretary General's Envoy on Youth OSGEY . The other is the Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Foundation, also known as the MiSK Foundation, of which Saudi Arabia's crown prince is founder, namesake and chairman of the board, according to The Guardian. Less than a year ago, the Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi, a Washington Post columnist and US resident, disappeared after entering the Saudi consulate in Istanbul. Timed to coincide with the United Nations general assembly and the climate summit, the invitation-only event has two sponsors. The US Central Intelligence Agencyand a United Nations investigator have both concluded that he was murdered on orders from the highest level of the Saudi government probably including Prince Mohammed himself, whose reputation has been in tatters ever since. But Khashoggi's murder provoked enough outrage that the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation pulled its funding from MiSK, calling Khashoggi's abduction and killing extremely troubling . And the Harvard University Extension School canceled its five-year agreement to reserve 100 of its 800 summer school slots for students sponsored by MiSK. Prince Mohammed has been struggling to rebuild his global brand ever since Khashoggi's murder. The crown prince has denied any involvement.
