About the Dialogue

• The Raisina Dialogue is a multilateral conference committed to addressing the most challenging issues facing the global community. 
• Every year, global leaders in policy, business, media and civil society are hosted in New Delhi to discuss cooperation on a wide range of pertinent international policy matters.
• The Dialogue is structured as a multi-stakeholder, cross-sectoral discussion, involving heads of state, cabinet ministers and local government officials, as well as major private sector executives, members of the media and academics.
• The conference is jointly organised by the Ministry of External Affairs and the Observer Research Foundation.

Why in News?

• The Ministry of External Affairs has decided to host this year’s edition of Raisina Dialogue as a fully digital event, as a measure of abundant caution, given the Covid-19 situation in various parts of the world.
