Throughout the forum, participants are exploring a range of pressing topics, including digital transformation, the responsible use of artificial intelligence, data protection, inclusive governance, anti-corruption efforts, stronger citizen engagement, and improved access to public services through panel discussions and thematic working sessions.

The forum will conclude on 25 June with the UN Public Service Awards ceremony.
