本週三，AIT副處長柯傑民（Jeremy Cornforth）於全球合作暨訓練架構 (#GCTF)「以科技力建構韌性及加速落實永續發展目標」線上國際研討會開幕致詞中強調：「儘管台灣被拒於門外，無法有意義地參與世衛大會及許多其他國際組織，今天的活動將能凸顯台灣仍以許許多多方式分享專長、並運用其科技長才，幫助國際社會解決你我共同面對的種種挑戰。美國會持續致力協助擴大台灣的國際參與空間。」
AIT副處長柯傑民、外交部長吳釗燮、日本台灣交流協會台北事務所代表泉裕泰、美國駐聯合國副大使蒲杰夫（Jeffrey Prescott）及駐紐約台北經濟文化辦事處處長李光章於週三一同參加了全球合作暨訓練架構 (GCTF)「以科技力建構韌性及加速落實永續發展目標」線上國際研討會。自2015年全球合作暨訓練架構啟動以來，這是第一次聚焦探討科技如何能增強韌性並加快實現可持續發展目標的進程。

On Wednesday, AIT Deputy Director Jeremy Cornforth, Foreign Minister Joseph Wu, Japan-Taiwan Exchange Association Chief Representative Hiroyasu Izumi, Deputy to the U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Jeff Prescot and Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in New York Director-General James Lee participated in a virtual Global Cooperation and Training Framework (GCTF) workshop titled “Building Resilience and Accelerating the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) Through Technology.” Since the GCTF’s 2015 program launch, this is the first event to focus on how technology can bolster resilience and accelerate progress towards meeting the SDGs.
In his opening remarks, Deputy Director Cornforth said, “Although Taiwan is prevented from participating meaningfully in the World Health Assembly and many other international organizations, today’s event will highlight the many ways that Taiwan is sharing its expertise and using its technological prowess to help the international community solve shared challenges. The United States remains committed to expanding Taiwan’s international space.”
