Aubrey Webson, Permanent Representative of Antigua and Barbuda to the United Nations, reinforced the importance of the upcoming once-a-decade summit that will convene all 39 heads of state from small island developing states in Antigua and Barbuda next May.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIsland nations continue to stand alone, and just barely, as the stiff headwinds of increasingly challenging times bring dark clouds over an already uncertain future. We gather in Antigua and Barbuda next year for the fourth SIDS Conference in an unparalleled bid to change the course of our fortunes as we stand treacherously close to the tipping point of a climate crisis,\u201d stated Ambassador Webson. \u201cSIDS4 is a rallying point for us to signal to the world that the time is now for us to adopt meaningful and uncompromising action in saving Small Island Developing States. We can no longer wait, making the Antiguan conference a crucial and pivotal endeavour,\u201d Ambassador Webson added.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-189889 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:auto\/h:auto\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/UNConcert1-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1366\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:1619\/h:1080\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/UNConcert1-1.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:300\/h:200\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/UNConcert1-1.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:1024\/h:683\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/UNConcert1-1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:768\/h:512\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/UNConcert1-1.jpg 768w, https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:1536\/h:1025\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/UNConcert1-1.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:696\/h:464\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/UNConcert1-1.jpg 696w, https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:1068\/h:712\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/UNConcert1-1.jpg 1068w, https:\/\/mlavawteztbj.i.optimole.com\/w:630\/h:420\/q:mauto\/f:best\/https:\/\/antiguanewsroom.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/UNConcert1-1.jpg 630w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Highlighting the importance of \u201cgenuine, durable partnerships,\u201d H.E.
