WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 Associated Press reports that Melania Trump on Tuesday called on nations to work together to improve access to education and technology for children around the world, delivering her plea as she addressed a gathering of her counterparts from more than 40 countries.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs people, we dream. As leaders, we progress. As nations, we will build,\u201d she said in opening remarks. \u201cBeginning today, let\u2019s accelerate our new global alliance, this bond, to positively impact the progress of our children.\u201d<\/p>\n

She called on participants to host regional meetings, conduct research studies, begin new partnerships, and collaborate with another member country \u201cto cultivate the skills young people need to be successful in this rapidly evolving world.\u201d<\/p>\n

She said the goal of empowering children will be achieved by creating innovative programs, advocating for supportive education policies, sponsoring tech-focused legislation, and building strong public-private partnerships.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis room is filled with extraordinary human capital,\u201d the first lady said. She urged the leaders seated around a large U-shaped table in a State Department auditorium to \u201charness it to elevate your children, to empower your people and to accelerate your economies.\u201d<\/p>\n

The gathering included technology companies such as Microsoft, Google, and OpenAI.<\/p>\n

Among those participating were Olena Zelenska, the spouse of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, and Sara Netanyahu, the wife of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.<\/p>\n
