Sustainable & Gender Inclusive Trade as An Engine of Economic Growth & Prosperity!

On the conclusion of Gender Day and Trade Day COP28 UAE, I was honoured to join the High-Level Reception in the Blue Zone, to explore the critical interplay between trade, gender and climate solutions as drivers for equitable economic development.

Hosted by DP World, distinguished leaders such as DP World Group Chairman and CEO, Mr. Sultan Ahmed Bin Sulayem, Director-General of the World Trade Organization, Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, and Former U.S. Secretary of State, The Hon. Hillary Clinton shared their visionary perspectives centred on a collective commitment to fostering an environment where the flow of trade becomes a catalyst for sustainable change.

Trade is the lifeblood for many, including women, young people and entrepreneurs, opening the doors to opportunity and connectivity for all, while fostering resilient and thriving communities. Together, we must prioritise the amplification of diverse voices and inclusive policies to drive tangible change in our pursuit.
