66 countries and 32 international organizations are expected to attend this year’s conference, which will be held virtually because of the COVID-19 restrictions.

The quadrennial ministerial pledging conference is co-hosted by Afghanistan, Finland, and the United Nations, and will take place on November 23 and 24.
