Art, Culture & Global Dialogue

his thematic group recognizes the transformative power of art and culture in shaping societies and bridging divides. It aims to promote cultural diplomacy as a means of fostering mutual understanding and cultivating constructive relationships across borders. By highlighting Pakistan’s diverse heritage, traditions, and creative potential, the group aims to position culture as both an expression of identity and a catalyst for dialogue.

The group will promote the growth of creative industries—film, music, design, literature, and digital media—that not only generate economic opportunities but also strengthen Pakistan’s cultural footprint on the global stage. It will champion heritage preservation to safeguard historical sites, languages, and indigenous traditions, ensuring they continue to inspire future generations. Efforts will also include advancing intercultural exchange programmes, supporting collaborations between local and international artists, and amplifying the voices of Pakistan’s diaspora through storytelling and media platforms.
