Under the High Patronage of His Majesty King Mohammed VI, the Policy Center for the New South will host the 14th edition of The Atlantic Dialogues in Rabat from December 11 to 13. With only two weeks to go, we are preparing to welcome a diverse and influential community that continues to shape conversations across the Wider Atlantic.

A PREMIER PLATFORM FOR GLOBAL COOPERATION

This year, the conference will convene about 450 participants, from policymakers and business figures to researchers and civil society leaders, representing more than 60 nationalities.

 

This unique gathering champions open, candid, and forward-looking exchanges, recognizing the importance of inclusive dialogue in a fragmented global landscape.

A DYNAMIC AND IMMERSIVE EXPERIENCE

This year’s edition promises a dynamic and engaging environment where ideas move freely, and perspectives meet beyond borders and generations. Over three days, the conference fosters rich interaction through:

 

  • 14 plenary sessions and 3 Conversations taking place on the conference main stage, featuring prominent speakers and moderated by seasoned journalists and broadcasters.
  • 2 Town halls also taking place on the conference main stage, and moderated by a leading international journalist, with no stage speakers and full audience interaction.
  • 18 Breakout Dinners and 3 Night Owl Sessions for off-the-record focused debates and candid conversations.

A PROGRAM SHAPED BY GLOBAL TRANSFORMATION

The 2025 agenda will explore how shifts in global power are redefining cooperation in the Atlantic:

  • Democratic resilience & governance challenges.
  • Geoeconomic realignments amid competition for energy, water, and critical resources.
  • Security transformation in cyberspace and contested maritime regions.
  • Education, social protection, and the future of work.
  • South-South, North-South partnerships and Africa’s growing role in international decision-making.

At the heart of these discussions lies a central question: how can the Atlantic community not only respond to disruption, but also shape a shared future defined by enduring, inclusive, and adaptive resilience?
