At 33, he’s the youngest person to deliver a Harvard commencement speech, and he picked up an honorary doctor of laws degree while he was there. His address touched on climate change, charity, volunteering, education, universal basic income, and combating authoritarianism and nationalism (“the struggle of our time”) while championing globalism. His speech echoed the high-level themes he has been championing at Facebook.

As he commented after on his personal Facebook page, “Today I delivered the commencement address at Harvard. This speech was personally important to me, and I’ve been writing it for a long time. My message was about purpose. As millennials, finding our purpose isn’t enough. The challenge for our generation is to create a world where every single person has a sense of purpose. That’s the key to true happiness, and the only way we’ll keep our society moving forward.”
