Entitled "The World in COVID-19 & Beyond: Working Together for Global Development and Shared Future", the Boao Forum for Asia Annual Conference 2022 focuses on three pressing issues the world is facing today: How to overcome the COVID-19 pandemic and build the world in the post-epidemic era, how to promote stable recovery of the world economy and achieve sustainable development and how to reduce tensions and confrontations in international relations and seek win-win cooperation.

Apart from the above issues, sub-forums and roundtable forums cover other hot topics, including green, innovative, inclusive and cooperative development.

This year's event also launched two flagship reports, the Asian Economic Outlook and Integration Progress Annual Report 2022 and Sustainable Development: Asia and the World — Asia in Action towards Green Transition.
