WELLINGTON, Sept. 5 (Xinhua) -- New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern will travel to New York on Sept. 17 to represent New Zealand at the United Nations General Assembly, co-host a Christchurch Call to Action Leader's Summit, and participate in events to promote trade, investment, and tourism.
Ardern stressed international cooperation facing COVID-19, climate change, wars and tensions, according to a government release on Monday.
She will co-host the Christchurch Call to Action Leaders' Summit with President of France Emmanuel Macron on Sept. 20. The Christchurch Call is a community of more than 120 governments, online service providers, and civil society organizations acting together to eliminate terrorist and violent extremist content online.
The call was made after terror attacks on two mosques in New Zealand's Christchurch in March 2019.
While in New York, she will also use the opportunity to promote New Zealand trade and export interests including meeting with Motion Picture Association of America executives to promote New Zealand as a film destination. Enditem
