Jimmy Carter, fresh off fall and Habitat build, to host Atlanta summit

Fresh from a nasty spill that gave him a black eye and 14 stitches, former President Jimmy Carter is keeping a busy schedule.

This weekend, Carter, currently participating in a Habitat for Humanity build in Nashville, is scheduled to host the Carter Center’s 12th Human Rights Defenders Forum.

Running from Saturday until Tuesday in Atlanta, the forum will gather dozens of activists, peacemakers and community leaders from 28 countries to talk about “Building Solidarity toward Equality for All.”

The former president is scheduled to attend the final day of the conference, offering remarks to the attendees on Tuesday morning, followed by a question and answer session to close out the conference at 3:50 p.m.
