December 13, 2022 – Kuwait City, Kuwait – Global Affairs Canada
Canada and Kuwait have enjoyed strong bilateral ties since they established diplomatic relations almost 60 years ago. The 2 countries have common global priorities, including increasing food security and promoting education, and they already engage closely in several key multilateral institutions.
The Honourable Harjit S. Sajjan, Minister of International Development and Minister responsible for the Pacific Economic Development Agency of Canada, and Sheikh Salem Abdullah Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, Minister of Foreign Affairs of Kuwait, signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) committing the 2 countries to collaboration in areas of common interest, as well as in countries where both have active development and humanitarian programming.
The MOU will commit the 2 countries to:
- increasing policy dialogue
- enhancing institutional linkages
- coordinating programming in countries of interest
This enhanced cooperation will contribute to a more coordinated response to today’s most pressing global challenges. It will focus on poverty reduction that is consistent with the principles of sustainable development, promotion of good governance, support for country- and women-led solutions, commitment to diversity and pluralism, and protection of human rights.
