    TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS, CUSTOMERS, PARTNERS AND EMPLOYEES: It is a humbling experience to write this letter to you as only the third CEO in Microsoft’s history. As I said when I took this role, I originally joined Microsoft to have an opportunity to change the world through technology and empower people to do amazing things. Many companies aspire to change the world, but very few have the talent, resources and perseverance of Microsoft. I believe this is a landmark moment for the company and for our industry as a whole. Cloud and mobile technologies are redefining how people work and play. Three billion people will soon be connected to Internet-enabled devices; 212 billion sensors will come online in a few short years; trillions will be spent in consumer and business technologies. But it’s not about technology for technology’s sake! It’s our mission to enable the use of technology to realize the true potential of people, teams and organizations. As I shared in my email to employees in July, we will be the productivity and platform company for this mobile-first and cloud-first world. We will empower every person and every organization on the planet to do more and achieve more. And we will accomplish this by building incredible Digital Work and Life Experiences, supported by our Cloud Operating System, the Device Operating System and Hardware platforms. In the same way that we aspired to and achieved our original vision of a PC on every desk and in every home, we will reinvent productivity. This clarity of purpose and boldness of our aspiration inspires me and all of us at Microsoft.

  • Glocal Forum Presentation
    GLOCAL FORUM PRESENTATION UN HABITAT EXPERT GROUP MEETING ON STRATEGIES FOR CREATING URBAN YOUTH EMPLOYMENT : Solution for Urban Youth in Africa I - Glocal Forum experience on youth and governance 1. Glocal Forum The Glocal Forum is a Non-Governmental Organization created in 2001 working for a new balance between global and local forces by emphasizing the central role of cities in the world. Our vision, glocalization, is an innovative strategy focusing on global issues by empowering local communities. It is a reform of globalization that encourages global powers to have a broader respect for local powers and cultural diversity. Led by its president, Ambassador Uri Savir, the Glocal Forum promotes peacebuilding and development activities through city-to-city relationships, youth empowerment and information communication technology. The Glocal Forum believes that cities have a central role in international relations and that mayors are poised to become the new diplomats of our world. City leaders have the advantage of mobilizing the good will, energy and expertise of their civil societies to contribute to peaceful dialogue and cultural exchange. The organization supports city-to-city networks by connecting them to the resources of the private and public sector. The Glocal Forum utilizes this global coalition of international organizations and private sector companies to harness resources and address local needs. A primary goal of city-to-city cooperation is to build an environment in which divisions caused by conflict and hatred can be bridged with harmony and coexistence. The Glocal Forum uses the city- to-city model as a fresh approach to brokering peace in the Middle East.

  • October 2007 1 CONCEPT PAPER on CITY DIPLOMACY
    CONCEPT PAPER ON CITY DIPLOMACY By Alexandra Sizoo VNG International Project Manager Secretariat UCLG City Diplomacy Committee 1. Introduction 1.1. Why this paper? Over the past decades, there is a clear tendency showing that maintaining international relations is no longer an exclusive ground for national governments. Diplomacy as a means to defend certain interests in the international community is also used by local governments. Local governments world wide have gained experience in establishing international relations by developing foreign policies, cooperating with local governments abroad, setting up lobby networks to make their work visible in the international community, etc. Furthermore, local governments feel the responsibility and see the advantages of contributing to democratic development elsewhere. Therefore, local governments participate in international cooperation projects and exchange experiences with their colleagues abroad. This kind of reasoning comes from two sides, since more and more, local governments that face a situation of internal conflict or war ask their counterparts to support them in dealing with the accompanying problems. As government tiers closest to the citizens, local governments feel responsible for creating and maintaining a safe and peaceful environment for their citizens. In 2005, the world organization of Local Governments, United Cities and Local Governments (UCLG), established the Committee on City Diplomacy. The committee objective is to define the role of local governments in promoting social cohesion, conflict prevention, conflict resolution and post-conflict reconstruction, in a word ‘peace building’. This rather narrow meaning of the concept City Diplomacy, is used as a working definition within the organisation. This paper is written to describe and to explain what City Diplomacy means according to the working definition of the committee (2).
