The high-level gathering includes over 35 Heads of State and Government and more than 500 ministers, focusing on artificial intelligence, sustainability, human wellbeing and economic resilience.

For Fiji, the summit is more than symbolic participation. It provides a strategic platform to amplify the voice of Small Island Developing States, particularly on climate adaptation, disaster risk management, renewable energy, sustainable tourism and rural and maritime development.

Fiji is also advancing diplomatic engagement with the United Arab Emirates, including discussions on establishing the UAE’s first embassy in Fiji and the wider Pacific region, a move expected to deepen cooperation and investment opportunities.
