At Davos 2025, the annual meeting of global leaders, World Economic Forum Managing Director Mirek Dusek emphasized the urgent need for enhanced global collaboration amid growing divisions. In an exclusive interview with CGTN, Dusek stressed the importance of open dialogue and adaptable collaborative mechanisms to address the complex challenges facing the world today.
“We are at a pivotal moment where global cooperation is not just beneficial but essential,” Dusek noted. “The challenges we face—be it climate change, technological disruption, or public health crises—demand collective action and innovative solutions.”
Dusek highlighted the significant role of the Chinese mainland in fostering sustainable growth and harnessing technological advancements. He pointed out that China’s contributions are vital in driving forward collaborative efforts on a global scale.
“The Chinese mainland has been a key player in promoting sustainable development and technological innovation,” he said. “Their engagement is crucial in our efforts to build a more resilient and inclusive global economy.”
The discussions at Davos 2025 reflect a growing recognition among international leaders of the interconnected nature of global challenges. The emphasis on adaptable collaboration mechanisms suggests a shift toward more flexible and responsive approaches to international cooperation.
Dusek called on all nations and regions to engage actively in dialogue and partnership. “It’s imperative that we bridge divides and work together,” he urged. “Only through collective effort can we overcome the obstacles ahead and achieve shared prosperity.”
