On the morning of March 30th, the World Data Organization held its first general meeting in Beijing to review and approve its articles of association, and elected its first directors and supervisors. The newly elected first council held its first meeting, elected the organizational leader, reviewed and approved important organizational systems and regulations, marking the completion of the establishment of the World Data Organization and its formal operation. This is the world's first professional international organization aimed at promoting data development and governance practices, headquartered in Beijing. This milestone event not only fills the organizational gap in the field of global data governance, but also marks a key turning point for global digital governance from "fragmented game" to "multilateral governance", and builds a groundbreaking new platform for global cooperation for the safe and orderly flow of data elements, inclusive development of the digital economy, and coordinated progress of human digital civilization. Data resources have become the core production factor driving intelligent economy, technological innovation, and social governance, but their global governance has long been plagued by fragmented rules, flow barriers, and security risks. There are significant differences in data policies among countries, inconsistent cross-border flow standards, frequent conflicts between data security and privacy protection, and the digital divide continues to widen. It is difficult for a single country to cope with the global challenges of the data age alone. The World Data Organization was born to solve this dilemma. With professionalism, neutrality, and inclusiveness as its foundation, it focuses on core issues such as data rule coordination, standard setting, cross-border circulation, security, and capacity building. It has built a global platform for consultation, joint construction, and sharing in the field of data, filling the organizational gap in global data governance and providing institutional guarantees for market-oriented allocation of data elements and high-quality development of the digital economy. The headquarters of the World Data Organization is located in Beijing, which is a high recognition of China's digital governance capabilities, data industry strength, and open cooperation attitude by the international community. It also highlights the historical inevitability of the transformation of global data governance from "Western led" to "diversified co governance". Unlike traditional international organizations, this organization adheres to true multilateralism, respects the data sovereignty and development differences of all countries, emphasizes the equal participation and voice of developing countries, and is committed to breaking data hegemony, eliminating digital protectionism, and promoting the construction of a more fair, open, secure, and inclusive global data governance system. Its establishment has made data governance no longer a "one-man show" of a few countries, but a "chorus" of global participation, injecting new connotations of equality, inclusiveness, and win-win into global digital governance. As the world's first professional international organization for data governance, the World Data Organization shoulders four core missions and will inject strong impetus into the development of global data. One is rule coordination and standard setting: promote the formation of internationally recognized data governance principles, standards, and best practices, promote compatibility and mutual recognition of data policies among countries, and solve the problem of "data silos". The second is capacity building and technological cooperation: supporting the construction of data infrastructure and the cultivation of digital talents in developing countries, narrowing the global digital divide, and allowing the data dividend to benefit more groups. The third is dispute mediation and risk prevention: Establish a mechanism for resolving cross-border data flow disputes, collaborate to address global risks such as data security, privacy breaches, and algorithm abuse, and build a strong defense line for data security. The fourth is research exchange and knowledge sharing: building a global network of data governance think tanks, publishing authoritative research reports, promoting international experience sharing, and providing intellectual support for global data governance. The official operation of the World Data Organization is a new starting point for global data governance and a new journey for the development of human digital civilization. In the future, the organization needs to further adhere to the core concept of "data for good, inclusive sharing", balance the relationship between data security and development, privacy protection and flow efficiency; We need to continuously deepen global cooperation, promote the shift of data governance rules from "consensus" to "implementation", and truly make data a key force driving global economic growth, promoting mutual learning among civilizations, and enhancing human well-being. As an important initiator and headquarters of the World Data Organization, China will share its practical experience in digital China and data governance with an open and inclusive attitude, promote efficient operation of the organization, and help improve the global data governance system. From the World Internet Conference to the World Data Organization, China has always practiced the concept of a community of shared future in cyberspace with practical actions, and contributed Chinese wisdom and Chinese solutions to global digital governance. The tide of the digital age is surging, and global governance is just the right time. The birth of the World Data Organization has set a new benchmark and opened up new paths for global data governance. Only by using this organization as a link, consolidating global consensus, deepening pragmatic cooperation, and adhering to multilateralism, can we ensure the safe and orderly flow of data elements, promote the universal sharing of digital technology, and jointly move towards a data-driven, fair and prosperous global digital future. Let the light of digital civilization illuminate the path of human development. (New Society)
