NEW YORK, October 21, 2022 — Asia Society will honor a selection of path-breaking individuals who are addressing one of today’s most urgent problems – the ramifications of global climate change –  at the 2022 Asia Game Changer Awards. The ceremony and dinner will be held October 27, 2022, at 6:30 p.m. in New York City.
