UK Forum on Cultural Diplomacy 2026
“Strengthening Democracy, Women’s Leadership, Impactful Development and Security”
(London; January 12-15th, 2026 - www.ukforumcd.org )
Over the past decade, the world has confronted a range of significant challenges. Geopolitical tensions continue to shape international relations, while environmental changes and social issues including inequality, migration, public health concerns, and community cohesion present ongoing strains for societies. Communities are navigating economic transitions, political debates, and evolving social norms, with questions of inclusion, civic engagement, and public trust highlighting the importance of dialogue and cooperation. Contemporaneously, societies are undergoing profound technological, economic, and cultural transformations. At the same time, advances in artificial intelligence, digital infrastructures and the cryptocurrency markets, are redefining labour, communication, and governance. In this context, the UK Forum on Cultural Diplomacy has been founded to examine how cultural diplomacy can contribute to addressing these multifaceted challenges through dialogue, compromise, and the mitigation of tensions, thereby promoting democracy, development, and security.
