A new responsibility, a new chapter, and an exciting AI journey ahead. A great honor to be in the presence of the President of Kazakhstan, H.E. Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, and join Kazakhstan’s Council for the Development of Artificial Intelligence. Under his leadership, #AI has become a strategic national priority, with Kazakhstan building the institutions, infrastructure, talent, and policies needed for a strong AI ecosystem. And I'm equally inspired by the leadership of H.E. Zhaslan Madiyev, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Artificial Intelligence and Digital Development, and his efforts to turn that ambition into progress. I look forward to bringing a digital cooperation perspective to the Council and contributing to #Kazakhstan’s remarkable AI journey. #DigitalProsperity4All

Water security increasingly depends on digital resilience. Protecting essential services means protecting the digital systems that keep them running. Proud to deliver this message before esteemed ministers at the #UNGA81 “United for Water” event, hosted by Senegal and the Global Water Organization (@GwOint). When digital water systems are disrupted, the consequences reach hospitals, schools, farms, businesses, and homes. As we strengthen water security, we must strengthen digital resilience too. Because protecting water security also means protecting the digital infrastructure that keeps water flowing. #WaterResilienceIsDigitalResilience #UnitedforWater #DigitalProsperity4All

Trust is the currency of multilateralism. And today, the world needs more of it. It was a great pleasure meeting the President of the 81st Session of the @UN General Assembly, H.E. Dr. Khailur Rahman (@UN_PGA), as he begins his presidency at such a critical time. His #UNGA81 remarks on restoring trust and making the UN more inclusive, particularly for the Global South, deeply align with our work at @dcorg. With #Bangladesh a valued DCO Member State, we look forward to working together towards a more inclusive digital future built on trust, cooperation, and shared opportunity. #DigitalTrust #DigitalProsperity4All

Saudi Arabia is looking beyond its own transformation, bringing the world together to tackle one of humanity’s most fundamental challenges: water. Delighted to meet H.E. Dr. Fahad Balghunaim, Head of the Founding Team of the Global Water Organization (GWO), a global intergovernmental organization born in the heart of Riyadh in 2023. At #UNGA81, we explored how water security is increasingly digital, with water systems relying on digital infrastructure for monitoring, treatment, distribution, and continuity. With 2 billion+ people lacking safely managed drinking water, @GwOint and @dcorg can combine expertise in water security and digital resilience to help safeguard the critical systems communities depend on. Because #WaterResilienceIsDigitalResilience. #DigitalProsperity4All #SaudiArabia

Women are not looking for just a seat at the table. They are ready to use their influence to shape what comes next. And if there is no table, we build one. Our yearly Women at the Table dinner, co-hosted with the inspiring HRH Princess Reema bint Bandar Al Saud (@rbalsaud), one of the greatest supporters and enablers of women and their leadership, brings remarkable women leaders from government, diplomacy, business, and international organizations together. Because representation is only the beginning. Every door we walk through should become easier for another woman to open. When we turn individual influence into collective impact, we make the table bigger and bring more women with us. @KGeorgieva @EgriseldaL @maisacastillob @dianebrady #UNGA81 #WomenAtTheTable #DigitalProsperity4All

57 Member States. One powerful opportunity to deepen digital cooperation. Pleased to meet H.E. Ismail Ould Cheikh Ahmed, Secretary-General of the @OIC_OCI, to advance the MoU between OIC and @dcorg and explore greater digital cooperation. With many DCO Member States also part of OIC, enhancing our partnership creates exciting opportunities to connect our efforts, exchange expertise, and expand our collective impact. As #UNGA81 brings multilateral cooperation into focus, we look forward to turning our shared priorities into action towards #DigitalProsperity4All.

Tech diplomacy must ensure technological progress becomes shared human progress, using cooperation to advance digital prosperity for all. That was my main message during a really engaging fireside chat at the USC Center on @PublicDiplomacy with Prof. Yannis Yortsos, Professor of Chemical and Petroleum Engineering at @USC, on why tech diplomacy has become so paramount. Technology is advancing faster than our ability to keep pace, but access remains unequal. That’s why we believe tech diplomacy must bring everyone to the table to shape a more inclusive and cooperative digital future. From #California to New York and anywhere else we can be, we’ll keep advocating for stronger multilateral digital cooperation, because when we unite around a shared goal, our digital future will be safer and more prosperous for all. #TechDiplomacy #DigitalCooperation #DigitalProsperity4All

#LEAP5 wasn’t just another event for @dcorg, it was further leaps in global digital cooperation. New Member States, meetings with global digital leaders, and timely discussions on the critical digital issues that we need to tackle. Proud of every leap we took together, and even more excited for where we go next. #DCOatLEAP #NineNewVoices #DigitalProsperity4All
