This year's focus was twofold - sustainable development and
demographics, both independently and as a joint issue. The platform proved to
be an excellent opportunity for discussions, exchange of good practices, open
critique and an incubator for future solutions.
The DIPLACAD meeting took place in a stimulating, less
formal environment, that enabled delegates to exchange opinions in a very
lively and fruitful debate, based on mutual respect and solidarity. The platform academy was
successful in bringing together states that otherwise rarely engage in common
discussions. It also enabled the revision of positions on specific topics and
created an opportunity to discuss future cooperation.
All the representatives are very pleased with the outcome of
the DIPLACAD and are looking forward to any similar future events
that would bring together even more countries wishing to search for
non-binding, but perspective solutions. However, the delegates showed a bit of
concern regarding the success of DIPLACAD in the future: ''We are aware that
during the 1st platform meeting, many representatives had other unavoidable
obligations. We hope that the outcome of these was as productive, educational
and mind-opening as ours and we are positive that the next DIPLACAD meeting will
be host an even broader attendance,'' pointed out representatives of China,
India, Indonesia, Russian Federation, Spain and Sweden.
