The Muscat Call 2022

The Muscat Call draws on the Global Forum that took place in Muscat, Oman, October 17-
19,
2022. The ancient maritime nation of Oman is located at the cross-roads of the Middle East,

Asia, Africa, and the West. While embracing novel solutions brought by digitalization and
the new technologies, Oman cherishes cultural heritage and respects tradition. The 2022

Global Forum connected technology, sustainability, and humanity. Participants joining from

all over the world contributed to joint creative work in a multicultural environment.

Diverse competences and a wealth of experience have shaped the Muscat Call. It is

actionoriented and aims to be practically relevant for addressing some of the most significant
issues of our time. At stake is our ability to manage and sustain our world’s most precious

natural resources, the world’s water cycles among them, along with the living eco-systems

which shape the very basis for our joint existence on planet Earth.

Following beneath, the Muscat Call is structured in four parts. The first introduces the
agenda. The second presents building blocks for a way forward. The third presents concrete

solutions that also represent untapped opportunities. The fourth represents a call for action.
While clamouring what is at stake, this document highlights what is being achieved, or is

under way, in response. Above all, it aims for inspiration and represents an invitation for

diverse competences to come together in taking joint action to realize and scale solutions to
prime outstanding issues confronting us all.
