Colleagues, let's get everybody seated and then we can reconvene. This meeting is now back in session.
We were in camera for the first hour. We're now in public. There are no cameras today, so you don't have to fix your tie or whatever, but there is live audio.
I want to begin by introducing Mr. Forsyth, who's the deputy executive director of UNICEF and UN assistant secretary-general. Good morning.
As well, we have with him Dominique Isabelle Hyde, deputy director, public partnerships division.
Of course, as you all know, we're very interested in the subject matter of UNICEF and the UN itself, generally. We talk about that quite regularly here in the foreign affairs committee. As Mr. Forsyth was in Ottawa, it was a good opportunity for us to have a conversation with him about some of these matters.
Mr. Forsyth, generally what we ask is that you make some opening comments, maybe giving the committee a sense of what you've been doing, what your role is, what the priorities are, and then we'll go to questions fairly quickly.
Time goes by quickly, so I'll turn the floor over to you.
