The Antalya Diplomacy Forum (ADF) is an annual high-level international conference held in Antalya, Türkiye, designed to facilitate dialogue and exchange views on global and regional challenges.

- Participants: The forum typically hosts thousands of participants from over 140 countries, including dozens of heads of state and foreign ministers.
- Notable History: In 2022, it hosted the first high-level talks between the Russian and Ukrainian foreign ministers following the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
- 2025 Edition: Held in April 2025 under the theme “Reclaiming Diplomacy in a Fragmented World,” focusing on restoring trust in international organizations and addressing global divisions.
