His Majesty King Abdullah is scheduled to participate in the World Economic Forum’s Davos Agenda meetings held virtually between 25 and 29 January under the theme “a crucial year to rebuild trust”.

The Davos Agenda will focus on mobilising international partnerships to counter the humanitarian and economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic by urging innovative solutions for future recovery and prosperity.

Participants—slated to include a number of G20 heads of state, representatives from international organisations, government officials, leading business executives, and academic and economic experts from more than 70 countries—will discuss advancing and accelerating public-private collaboration on critical global issues such as COVID-19 vaccination, job creation, and climate change.
