An incredible honour to be in this photo with HH Sheikh Hamdan Bin Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum at the opening of the Asia-Pacific Cities Summit and Mayors’ Forum at Expo City Dubai. This marked a proud moment for Dubai, and for me in my role as Mayoral Outreach Coordinator
Hamdan bin Mohammed attends the opening of the 2025 Asia Pacific Cities Summit and Mayors’ Forum, hosted by Expo City Dubai. The event is one of the world’s largest and most diverse gatherings of mayors, city leaders and business decision-makers. Held at the Dubai Exhibition Centre until 29 October, it brings together more than 150 mayors and representatives of over 350 cities to collectively advance the future of sustainable and inclusive urban development.

Last week in Nairobi, we were proud to join our 2025APCS Knowledge Partner, Charter Cities Institute, at the New Cities Summit — a leading gathering of urban thinkers, builders, and changemakers from Africa and beyond. From leading a workshop on Expo City Dubai’s Urban Framework to moderating conversations on urban design, contributing to a White Paper Roundtable on New Cities, and holding one-on-one engagements with public and private sector leaders — our time in Nairobi strengthened our connections with those shaping Africa’s urban future. As we look ahead to 2025APCS this October, we continue to build a truly global platform — bringing cities together to address shared priorities and unlock bold opportunities for trade, investment, and sustainable development. Join us in shaping the cities of tomorrow. 👉 Learn more about 2025APCS – 2025apcs.expocitydubai.com 👉 Register to attend 2025APCS – lnkd.in/dFWRMEHf 👉 Download the event overview here – bit.ly/43RnWgb @expocitydubai @CCIdotCity @brisbanecityqld #2025APCS #NewCitiesSummit

No girl should ever be forced to get married. Child marriage is a human rights violation that denies girls the chance to reach their full potential and has lasting impacts on their health and well-being. More from @UNFPA: unfpa.org/child-marriage #EndChildMarriage

This is a positive step in the right direction for improved 🇮🇳-🇵🇰 bilateral relations! Both countries have a shared history, culture, language. There is more to unite them than divide them.
Departing from Islamabad. Thank PM @CMShehbaz, DPM & FM @MIshaqDar50 and the Government of Pakistan for the hospitality and courtesies.
