Deputy Secretary Wenjun said that my country’s international influence is increasing day by day, and it needs more capable and ambitious high-level global governance talents to join international organizations. Among them, the number of positions in core departments and key positions urgently needs to be increased, which puts forward higher requirements for talent training in universities. Against this background, w88 casino promulgated a work plan for cultivating and promoting global governance talents, and established the basic idea of formulating long-term goals and strategies for cultivating global governance talents based on disciplinary layout and professional characteristics. The w88 casino attaches great importance to communication and exchanges with international organizations. The Nairobi Office is one of the three offices of the United Nations. The headquarters of the United Nations Environment Program and the United Nations Human Settlements Program are all located in Nairobi. Through this trip to Kenya, the w88 casino hopes to listen to the opinions and suggestions of experts serving in international organizations and understand the employment needs of international organizations, with a view to further adjusting the talent training program to better meet the needs of international organizations and to create a high-level talent reserve for my country's participation in global governance.
