First Lady Melania Trump’s Fostering the Future Together initiative will hold four international gatherings before the end of 2026, the White House announced Tuesday, outlining events in the United States, Asia, Europe and the Caribbean.
The White House announcement lists a G20 gathering in Miami hosted by Melania Trump; an ASEAN conference in the Philippines hosted by First Lady Liza Araneta-Marcos; a European regional conference in Poland hosted by First Lady Marta Nawrocka; and a Caribbean regional conference in St. Kitts and Nevis hosted by First Lady Diani Prince-Drew.
The White House release did not give exact dates. A separate State Department briefing dated November 9 put the Caribbean summit on November 13-14, the Manila event on November 16, and the Poland summit on November 18-19. It described the Miami gathering as a G20 spouses program to close out the year.
The initiative focuses on children’s access to technology and education. The White House describes it as a coalition of “nearly 60 nations.”
The announcement also cited more than $23 million in technology-partnership commitments from Adobe, Amazon, Intel, Starlink, Google and Zoom. Those commitments were announced earlier at the 81st United Nations General Assembly in New York, not as new funding on Tuesday.
The four gatherings are planned events. The White House statement did not announce completed projects or measure outcomes from the partnerships.
