"With its rich culture and picturesque landscape, Wuxi has impressed many guests from around the world. I am sure these young delegates will get the taste of what diplomacy is like through this conference. I hope you will enjoy yourselves, learn from each other, and make progress," said Huang Ping, Chinese consul general in New York, who delivered a speech to the attendees via video.

Steven O'Brien, UNHCR's senior external relations officer, also delivered a speech via video. He believes that this event can bring together young people with a global perspective to discuss crucial humanitarian issues.
