He served as the Director-General of the African Union’s African Risk Capacity from 2013-2015 at the level of Assistant Secretary General and currently serves as Special Advisor on Humanitarian Finance to the United Nations World Food Program and as a senior conflict mediation advisor at the Humanitarian Dialogue Centre.[1] BiographyAs a United Nations and African Union diplomat,[2] Wilcox has led key development reform enterprises including the African Risk Capacity (ARC) to ensure African governments against natural disasters [3] and was first to propose a levy on personal data extraction to finance aid for the elimination of extreme poverty.[4] As head of the ARC, he also developed the first sovereign pandemic insurance program.[5] In 2008, Wilcox served as the UN Secretary-General’s envoy to Serbia for the Kosovo independence process where he negotiated the SG Kosovo package, then the first agreement in the UN Security Council on Kosovo in a decade.[6] He had previously served in UN political and peacekeeping missions in the former Yugoslavia (1995-1999) and Iraq (2003-2004, 2007) as well as Director of United Nations affairs on the US National Security Council (1999-2001).[7] In 2017, his nomination as UN special envoy to Libya was withdrawn as Russia retaliated against US opposition to an earlier candidate.[8] Wilcox holds a Ph.D. from MIT (2000) and was a fellow at Harvard’s Olin Institute for Strategic Studies (1998). He has also taught political science at the Johns Hopkins University’s School of Advanced International Studies.
