Maina. Ruofei Wang and with Waridah M. Samantha Khoo Su-Yen Shuvarthi Bhattacharjee @Muhammad Deckri Algamar Paola Gálvez Callirgos🌐 @Vivek Rana. 

These few months have been hectic. We have submitted statements to the governments of hashtag#China (Ministry of Industry and Technology of China), hashtag#BurkinaFaso (Ministry of Digital Transition Postal and Electronic Communications), hashtag#India (Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology), hashtag#Singapore (Ministry of Law), hashtag#SouthKorea (National Information Society Agency) and hashtag#Vietnam (Ministry of Science and Technology). Thank you Julian Theseira Merve Hickok and Marc Rotenberg (and of course the amazing Grace S. Thomson). 

Working in the Global Majority Group there are so many things that hit you. Most importantly, countries are actively trying to do better with more public consultations - thank you! The diversity of thought and experience CAIDP brings is important! Loved working with the team - 🎉 we did it !!! Below some snap shots from graduation and the key note from Nobel Laureate Daron Acemoglu. 

Congratulations to the 300 graduates across all the programs (our was the smallest cohort - 18 people who took the AI policy exam)! The pace is rapid and real-time. Congratulations to all team fellows and mentors who put in many hours helping the group through the many deadlines. Bravo!!!
