The Government of Antigua and Barbuda has formally launched the 2026 Commonwealth People's Forum, marking the beginning of a multi-year strategic alignment ahead of the November 2026 summit.
The launch ceremony, held Tuesday, featured high-level addresses from national leaders focused on integrating civic perspectives into official global policy discussions.
Prime Minister Gaston Browne used the occasion to issue a call for a 'cultural renaissance,' framing the upcoming summit as an opportunity for Antigua and Barbuda to assert its values and identity on the Commonwealth stage.
The forum is designed to serve as a platform for civil society and community voices to shape the positions Antigua and Barbuda brings to the broader Commonwealth summit, ensuring that public insight informs high-level international dialogue.
