🇦🇬 My thanks to Foreign Affairs Minister E.P. Chet Greene for the warm welcome to Antigua and Barbuda ahead of #CHOGM2026
This is a special moment for me as it will be my first CHOGM as Secretary-General.
I look forward to joining @gastonbrowne in welcoming our Commonwealth family to Antigua and Barbuda for a consequential summit.

Since its inaugural gathering in Singapore in 1971, the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting has shaped more than five decades of Commonwealth history: championing the fight against apartheid, strengthening democracy and human rights, and pioneering action on climate change and ocean protection. 🌍
From the Singapore Declaration to today, CHOGM has shown how 56 nations can turn shared values into lasting global impact.
A legacy of principled multilateralism. A shared vision for the future.

One Commonwealth Summit. One opportunity to change how the Commonwealth delivers results.
At Wolfson College, University of Oxford, I shared my vision for a Commonwealth that turns ambition into action by connecting countries with investors, unlocking climate finance and creating opportunities for millions of young people.
With more than US$30 billion in potential investment projects and bold new initiatives for climate action and youth empowerment, we are building partnerships to deliver investment and prosperity for our 2.7 billion people.
#CHOGM2026 will be the turning point. Our moment is here.
