She added that the meeting will address the multiple challenges facing the Afghan people, Afghanistan's neighbors, the region, and the broader international community. There will also be an opportunity to explore ways to achieve more principled engagement with the de facto authorities for the benefit of all Afghans. Following the main meeting, the UN Under-Secretary-General and the special envoys will meet with representatives of Afghan civil society. HE Special Representative of the UN Secretary-General and Head of the United Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan (UNAMA), Roza Otunbayeva, will also participate in the discussions.
