The purpose of this, she noted, is to effectively contribute to improving quality of life, strengthening public services, and responding to global challenges that directly affect the population.
The event, which featured presentations and interactive roundtable discussions, brought together political leaders, senior officials, experts, private sector representatives, and civil society members from around the world.

The event will take place in Lima in October 2026.
