Page 5 - The Annual AI Governance Report 2025 Steering the Future of AI

be held back-to-back in the margins of ITU’s AI for Good Global Summit in Geneva in 2026.
We gladly offer this report, and in particular the conclusions of the co-chairs of this year’s AI
Governance Dialogue, as input to Global Dialogue on AI Governance next year.

Dialogue helps us set direction and chart a path towards a better inclusive digital future.

We do not need to sail in the same ship, or at the same speed, but we do need to navigate
the same oceans by the same compass.

As one Minister said during the Dialogue: we must look forward, together.

I hope this report serves in helping humanity navigate towards a horizon where AI becomes a
force for shared, positive change for all.
