SIDS are among the countries most anxious about their future, as climate change and sea level rise pose a grave and imminent danger to their communities. <\/span><\/p>\n

At the Summit of The Future, our ambitions must be bold and actionable enough to secure sustainable prosperity for SIDS and the rest of the world alike. <\/span>#OurCommonFuture<\/a><\/span> #SoTF<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Had a productive meeting with H.E. Dr. Vivian Balakrishnan, Singapore’s Foreign Minister.<\/span><\/p>\n

We discussed critical issues like accelerating implementation of the SDGs, education, climate change, sea level rise, peace and security and the vital role of small states in global multilateralism. I count on Singapore’s continued support for the upcoming Summit of the Future in September and its key outcome documents, including the Pact for the Future and the Global Digital Compact.<\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/span>#SOTF<\/a><\/span> co-facilitators had an informative exchange with President of the General Assembly, H.E Dennis Francis.<\/span><\/p>\n

I was honored, while in <\/span>Namibia<\/a><\/span>, to participate in a roundtable discussion on debt sustainability and the reform of the international financial architecture.
