Greetings from Yokohama, Japan, a historic crossroads of people, ideas and opportunities and the gateway for many migrants through the years. Thanks to Japan's generosity, we've been able to respond quickly in times of crisis, support families displaced from their homes and create safe and dignified pathways for those seeking new opportunities. More than 3,700,000 migrants now call Japan home, nearly 3% of the population, and the number is continuing to grow. Japan's experience shows how migration, when well managed, can bring skills, energy and cultural richness to communities. And across Africa, through 50 IOM offices, Japan's partnership has made a real difference. Together, we've brought urgent assistance to people in need, supported recovery in fragile contexts, and helped communities look to the future with resilience and hope. We look forward to taking this partnership to the next level, to doing more together. So migration works for everyone, those who move and for those countries that welcome them.

We have various stakeholders, including business, politics, governments, NGOs, trade unions, media, experts, scientists, academia, religious leaders, and social entrepreneurs. These stakeholders play a crucial role in our organization. They contribute to shaping the future by bringing new solutions driven by technological advancements.

It was a true privilege to meet His Holiness, Pope Leo the fourteenth today. The speaker reflects on the significance of this encounter, underscoring how meaningful the conversation felt in the current moment when a large number of lives continue to be lost across various perilous environments. The dialogue focused on shared values and responsibilities, highlighting a commitment to solidarity and the duty to welcome those in need, as well as an urgent obligation to save lives and protect people who are on the move. The discussion explicitly centers on the grave human impact of displacement and risky journeys, noting that losses occur at sea, in the desert, and along migration routes. The speakers stress that addressing these crises requires a collective approach rooted in compassion and courage, with an emphasis on actionable steps to respond to those in need. This emphasis on humanitarian duty is presented as a guiding principle for policy and practice, encouraging a posture of care and protection for vulnerable individuals who traverse dangerous paths. A key portion of the conversation is devoted to the concept of safe and regular pathways as a means to reduce dangerous journeys. The speakers articulate how establishing predictable, lawful routes can help diminish the risks associated with irregular migration, while also preserving the dignity of migrants. These pathways are described as tools to open up opportunities that support sustainable development, linking the protection of human life to broader social and economic benefits for communities involved in migration flows. Throughout the exchange, there is a continuous reaffirmation that every life lost serves as a powerful reminder to act with both compassion and courage. The tone conveys gravity and determination, urging responsible actors to translate moral imperatives into concrete measures that protect people on the move. By foregrounding solidarity, humane reception, and safe transit options, the conversation with Pope Leo the fourteenth is framed as a call to collective action that aligns humanitarian values with practical strategies for saving lives and promoting dignity and development.

The speaker believes America's future depends on welcoming immigrants and dreamers. The ultimate goal is to help dreamers and create a path to citizenship for all undocumented immigrants, regardless of the exact number.

I am grateful to Brad and Microsoft for their support. When we have ideas to make a positive impact, Microsoft is enthusiastic to partner with us. This mindset exists in other companies too, rooted in the recognition of the business case for various causes like economic development, digitization, climate change adaptation, and strengthening democracy. Companies like Microsoft have a powerful voice and can make a difference. It's not just about preaching to the choir, but about showing up and taking action in the private sector. I am incredibly grateful for their support.

I have spent four years at USAID and am more convinced than ever of the impact of American compassion and ingenuity, alongside our foreign service nationals. While we face new challenges, we also have fresh insights, tools, and partners. In my travels to communities where USAID operates, I hear stories of transformation—people receiving capital to start businesses, recovering from disasters, or gaining education to achieve their goals. These individuals are eager to collaborate with the United States to tackle future challenges. By becoming more responsive, efficient, and catalytic, we can harness the power of these partnerships and drive progress in this new era.

The speaker is in Brussels for critical discussions with friends and partners from the humanitarian community about providing life-saving aid to the world’s most vulnerable people and making concrete commitments to turn ideas into action. Since 2017, more than 6,000,000 Venezuelans have sought refuge in 17 countries across the region, representing the largest displacement in the Western Hemisphere. At the 2023 International Conference in Solidarity with Venezuelan Refugees and Migrants, the United States announced more than 171,000,000 in humanitarian assistance and development funding to respond to the needs of vulnerable Venezuelans in their own country, Venezuelan refugees and migrants, and the generous communities that host them across the region. The speaker expresses being inspired by the stories of strength and resilience of Venezuelan refugees and migrants and pride in the United States’ role as the largest single donor to this crisis response. The United States is highlighted as the largest single donor of humanitarian assistance worldwide. The speaker looks forward to next week’s European Humanitarian Forum, where government representatives, international organizations, non-governmental organizations, and others will collaborate on issues such as refugee resettlement, humanitarian diplomacy, and forced displacement. Addressing the unprecedented 100,000,000 persons now displaced worldwide will require additional aid and support from new and nontraditional donors, as well as new ideas and approaches. The speaker stresses that no single country can address all needs alone, and that the only way forward is together. Gratitude is extended to the European Union for bringing everyone together for these discussions. The challenges ahead are described as formidable, but equally strong is the will to overcome them. The speaker affirms confidence that, together, progress can be made.

NGOs like Hyas, Catholic Charities, and IOM are managing mass migration in countries. Thousands of migrants, including Venezuelans, Chinese, and Afghans, pass through daily. New camps are being built to accommodate them. Organizations like IOM, Red Cross, and UNICEF are involved in planned mass migration as outlined in the IOM report "Migration and the 2030 Agenda." The report promotes migration as a development tool and suggests facilitating, not restricting, migration efforts.

The speaker notes that a few months ago there were warnings that a large number of migrants is starting to cause tension within communities, creating backlash. This backlash around migration can rapidly lead to the loss of a government that is in power, as the situation can quickly spiral. The speaker emphasizes that 225,000 migrants may not seem large, but it is essentially equivalent to 75,000,000 migrants crossing the United States from Mexico to Canada, and such a scale would provoke substantial backlash and exacerbate tensions in the country. In reflecting on the issue overall, the speaker expresses a belief in greater support and engagement with stable countries, specifically mentioning Djibouti as an example of a reasonably stable country with which to engage.

Minnesota ranks the highest per capita for being a safe haven for transgender individuals in Minnesota. And can I just say, we can talk about economic growth and feeding children and growing the economy and creating jobs simultaneously with talking about everybody's human rights matters, and we shouldn't be demonizing them? You can do both. The speaker asserts that economic growth, feeding children, growing the economy, and creating jobs can be pursued simultaneously with advancing human rights and that such discussions should not involve demonizing transgender people. This framing emphasizes a holistic approach to policy that integrates civil rights with economic aims.

The speaker outlines the range of stakeholders that are important to their work, emphasizing a broad and diverse audience. They identify business as a very important audience, alongside politics, highlighting the role of ongoing engagement across multiple governmental contexts through continuous partnerships with many governments around the world. The speaker also notes NGOs and trade unions as key groups to consider, along with media, which is acknowledged as an important stakeholder category. Further, the speaker highlights that experts, scientists, and academia are crucial for informing a forward-looking perspective, particularly when considering future directions and solutions. The statement underscores the belief that the future will be shaped largely by technological developments, implying a need to incorporate cutting-edge innovations and technical expertise in strategic discussions and decision-making. In addition to these conventional sectors, the speaker mentions religious leaders as part of the stakeholder landscape, signaling recognition of faith-based perspectives and moral or ethical considerations in broader dialogues. Social entrepreneurs are singled out as well, described as very important, suggesting that venture-driven approaches to social impact are seen as a significant component of the ecosystem. Overall, the speaker communicates a philosophy of inclusivity and broad collaboration, integrating political, business, civil society, media, scientific, religious, and entrepreneurial voices. The emphasis on continuous partnerships with governments worldwide indicates an ongoing, collaborative approach to governance, policy, and implementation across different regions. The repeated references to a future oriented by technological development signal a strategic priority placed on innovation and science as drivers of forthcoming solutions, informing how they engage with the various stakeholder groups and respondents to emerging challenges. In sum, the speaker presents a multi-stakeholder framework that spans business, politics, governments, NGOs, trade unions, media, experts, scientists, academia, religious leaders, and social entrepreneurs, all contributing to a future shaped by technological progress and collaborative problem-solving.

Speaker 0 outlines a framework for shaping America’s future by emphasizing intelligence to identify enemies and organize effective responses. He states that Jews will not lead this fight and that Americans must think and fight as Americans. The approach centers on two ecosystems, both supported by the Milsson Family Foundation and Gillan: the Pro Israel ecosystem and the Pro American ecosystem. In the Pro Israel ecosystem, which fights antisemitism, they support close to 100 organizations. In the Pro American ecosystem, organizations that have nothing to do with Jews and aim to fight for America are supported. The selection process focuses on identifying “the good ones”—organizations willing to collaborate with others and open to hearing ideas. They fund some organizations with large amounts and others with smaller grants; even small funding can open doors because donors’ input matters to organizations that would rather listen to donors than “dogs barking outside.” The foundation’s role includes sharing information, offering ideas, and making connections to strengthen collaboration. Specifically, they connect pro‑Israel/anti‑antisemitism organizations with pro‑American organizations to build broader coalitions. The speaker emphasizes that there is no silver bullet, but the goal is to mobilize and empower many groups to work together for America’s future. Overall, the message centers on intelligence-led identification of adversaries, strategic funding of organizations in two allied ecosystems, selective support of collaborative and receptive groups, donor influence as a catalyst for engagement, and proactive information sharing and inter‑organizational linking to foster a united effort for the country.

The only way for America to have a great future is to welcome and embrace immigrants, including dreamers. The ultimate goal is to help dreamers and create a path to citizenship for all undocumented immigrants, whether it's 11 million or another number.

The speaker discusses an upcoming trip and the actions needed to sustain progress, emphasizing that the audience should not turn away any friends and should mobilize all possible support. The central message is that the era of “Black Hawk Down” is over, and Somalia is on the upswing. Several reasons are highlighted for optimism: Somalia has a fully thinking progressive president; a parliament that is working hard to construct a system of laws for the Somali people; and, for the first time in twenty-two years, the United States government is so confident in this government in Somalia that we recognize this government. In addition, it is noted that two days after the speaker left Mogadishu, Rod Shaw, who is the head of The United States in international development, landed in Mogadishu himself, underscoring visible engagement from the U.S. At the same time, the speaker emphasizes that the bottom line is that steady progress will require the help of everyone present. There is a clear admonition that no one in the room can assume that other people will do the work, implying that personal responsibility is essential for continued progress. The speaker calls for broad participation: “We need your help.” Addressing the audience directly, the speaker says, “Yes, you. You understand what I mean? Every single individual needs to take personal responsibility for the continued progress of Somalia and the continued strengthening of the United States–Somali relationship.” This framing reinforces the expectation of individual contribution to collective advancement and the deepening of ties with the United States. Finally, the speaker articulates a hopeful vision for Somalia’s future: “My dream, God willing, is to see Somalia in the eyes of the world move from being a security threat to a security partner.” The vision includes transforming Somalia’s role on the global stage and domestic economy: moving from a recipient of emergency food aid to a commercial and trading partner. The overarching theme is the necessity of active, individual commitment to sustain political stability, legal development, and stronger U.S.–Somali relations in order to realize this favorable trajectory.

These stakeholders play crucial roles in our organization. They contribute to our partnerships, provide expertise, and drive technological advancements for future solutions.

Sharing knowledge and solutions is crucial for addressing global challenges. The speaker emphasizes the importance of connections and interconnectivity. They encourage the audience to use the connections made at the summit to continue engaging and sharing ideas. The speaker highlights three areas where cities are leading the way: migration, national government learning from cities, and incorporating city perspectives into national policies. They discuss the unprecedented number of displaced people globally and the migration challenge in the hemisphere. The Los Angeles Declaration on Migration and Protection was a regional approach to address this challenge. Bogota, under Mayor Claudia Lopez's leadership, has implemented measures to integrate migrants, providing them with essential services and opportunities. These efforts demonstrate that migration can be managed safely and contribute to community growth.

The speaker believes the Freedom Online Coalition (FOC) could maximize its potential by reaffirming its foundational principles. This involves powerfully articulating the link between pluralistic, open societies and a secure, interoperable, open, and free internet. The speaker suggests the FOC could effectively translate between the priorities of the internet governance community, the regulatory community, and the role of the internet in foreign policy. This includes its use as a foreign policy tool and its intrinsic value. By drawing connections between these elements and the overall goals of multilateralism, the FOC can demonstrate how open discourse and governance enhance the system.
