Melania Trump Hosts Global Summit on Tech's Role in Children's Future
Melania Trump is hosting an international summit in Washington, D.C., to explore how advanced technologies can support children's education and well-being. The event, titled Together for a Better Future, will bring together global leaders, educators, and policymakers on March 24-25. A key focus will be the safe and creative use of digital tools in young people's lives.
The two-day summit will begin with a roundtable at the White House, led by Melania Trump. The discussion will centre on the role of first spouses in helping children navigate the digital age. Georgia's delegation will include Tamar Bagrationi, spouse of President Mikheil Kavelashvili, along with Deputy Education Minister Baia Kvitsiani and Parliament's Education Committee Chair Mariam Lashkhi.
A working session at the U.S. Department of State will follow, examining practical strategies for children's development in an online world. Topics will cover digital platforms, artificial intelligence, and educational tools, as well as safeguarding creativity and online safety. The event also marks the launch of Melania Trump's *Fostering the Future Together* (FFT) initiative. This global coalition aims to unite experts in technology, education, and child welfare. Previously, she made history as the first U.S. First Lady to chair a UN Security Council session, addressing children's access to education and technology in conflict zones.
The summit will run from March 24-25, 2026, with sessions at both the White House and the State Department. Delegates will share insights on balancing innovation with protection for young people in digital spaces. Outcomes may shape future policies on technology's role in education and child development.
