Great to be invited to speak at the Qatar Mediation Forum last week and to meet a range of different actors in Mediation - as practice in the field evolves.
It was a pleasure too to meet former and new colleagues: some left the UN or a country but are still very much around!

Frank and productive exchanges this week in Brussels at the annual 🇪🇺EU-🇺🇳UN Strategic Dialogue on Conflict Prevention and Mediation.
We discussed the UN - EU relationship in peace and security and above all the implementation of the Pact for the Future.
Much to do for these partners in peace! 🕊️

Brussels evening thoughts, after Day 1:
one realises that months of online calls & "meetings" can't replace valued human, face to face encounters. Nuance, tic, raised eyebrow, smile, irony, consolations. Mediation is a human endeavour. So must be our interactions, quibbles w colleagues, adversaries.

Coming up: Brussels! 🇪🇺
Looking forward to 2 days of the EU-UN Dialogue on Mediation & Conflict Prevention this week. Also meeting with a host of supporters of diplomacy and good offices - in the EEAS, the Political & Security Committee and Commission.
To quote John Ruggie, multilateralism matters.

Best of luck to @nupinytt.bsky.social in new digs - and goodbye to "Hotel Cæsar"! With fond memories of my 2021-22 sabbatical there.
