Models, maps and floor plans… Mirage Smart City really knows how to get my attention! An impressive & ambitious project, building smart technology and sustainability into development. A good example of the changing face of Tripoli

A real honour to visit the Old City Administration in their stunning offices. Great to hear about the deep & historic connections between Tripoli & the UK. Some really good ideas about how we can build on this historic relationship and I look forward to working together

🇬🇧 Deputy Ambassador @benplomacy: A pleasure to meet with the Old #Tripoli City Administration Board this week. We discussed strengthening UK 🇬🇧–Tripoli 🇱🇾 ties through greater collaboration, cultural exchanges and cooperation. Looking forward to building on this partnership!

British-style tea and Libyan ka’ak. Some 🇬🇧- 🇱🇾 ties are especially good to promote!

A large cup of tea served British-style (black tea with milk), and a plate of Libyan ka’ak (filled biscuity cake)

Economic stability is critical for political and social stability and prosperity. Great to have the Governor of the Central Bank of Libya in London to discuss implementation of the unified budget agreement and other economic issues

UK in Libya🇬🇧🇱🇾 @UKinLibya Sep 17

Productive discussions between the Governor of the Central Bank of Libya 🇱🇾 and the FCDO 🇬🇧 Chief Economist. The meeting reaffirmed the importance of continued efforts to strengthen the implementation of the unified spending framework and advance greater fiscal coordination.

My biggest piece of advice when applying for a 🇬🇧 Chevening scholarship: make sure you tell a good story about what you’ve done, what you’re going to do, and why the course / university / the U.K. is the bridge between the two
