19 May 2026 The “International Youth AI Competition” has successfully concluded as part of the 13th session of the World Urban Forum (WUF13) held in Baku. The project, dedicated to the theme of “Resilient, Sustainable and Reintegration-Friendly Cities of the Future”, has attracted great interest globally.
Pakistan’s Minister for Climate Change and Environmental Coordination, Musadik Masood Malik, praised Azerbaijan’s leadership role during the 13th session of the United Nations World Urban Forum (WUF13) in Baku, emphasizing the growing connection between climate resilience, social justice, and sustainable urban development.
A meeting with Kenya’s president yesterday on the outskirts of WUF13, coming four months after SOCAR acquired its first African upstream stake in the Ivory Coast’s Baleine field, signals that the Azerbaijani national oil company is no longer treating Africa as a peripheral opportunity. It is treating it as the next chapter.
