I am honored to be selected as the incoming co-chair and look forward to working with the UK government to advance a more accountable, equitable, and participatory world.
We’re excited to welcome Brazil and Steph Muchai as OGP’s Co-Chairs and to spotlight the UK and Laura Neuman, who will follow as Co-Chairs in 2026–2027. Brazil & Steph’s Co-Chair Agenda, launched at #COP30, sets bold priorities for #opengov. opengovpartnership.org/news/…

From one grandchild to another, you should be proud. There are politics and elections, yes. But as they say, “history casts the final ballot”. Your grandfather is revered—by my family and many others.
