Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting - CHOGM

Every two years, Commonwealth leaders meet for a few days to discuss global and Commonwealth issues, and to agree collective policies and initiatives.

These summits provide a unique forum for consultation at the highest level of government. They are organised by the host nation in collaboration with the Commonwealth Secretariat.

At their 2007 summit in Kampala, Uganda, Heads of Government reaffirmed their decision to meet in Trinidad and Tobago in 2009 at the invitation of the Government of that country.

CHOGM 2007

The last Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM) was held in Kampala, Uganda from 23-25 November 2007. The theme for the meeting was ‘Transforming Commonwealth Societies to achieve political, economic and human development’.
