Multilateral Affairs
The Department is responsible for the promotion of Botswana’s relations with multilateral institutions/organizations such as the United Nations and its specialized agencies, Non-Aligned Movement, Commonwealth, and WTO.
It also deals with governance issues and international treaties, conventions and protocols which Botswana is signatory to. Botswana regards multilateral diplomacy as a key component of its foreign policy. Multilateralism thus remains the most effective forum in which, as a small country, Botswana has the opportunity to exert its influence on the international agenda.
