The Prime Minister is on her way to Europe.Â
Jacinda Ardern will first meet British Prime Minister Theresa May in London.Â
She will travel to Davos for the World Economic Forum later this week.Â
U.S President Donald Trump, British Prime Minister Theresa May and French President Emmanuel Macron have pulled out of the event to focus on domestic issues.Â
New Zealand Herald Political reporter Lucy Bennett says Jacinda Ardern will be there and is due to speak on a number of panels.Â
"The theme of this year's forum is Globalisation 4.0, making globalisation something that is inclusive."Â
Bennett says that one panel, More Than GDP, will give Ardern an opportunity to discuss her 'wellbeing budget' on a global stage.
At the conference, Ardern is expected to meet with Prince William, David Attenborough and Al Gore.Â
Finance Minister Grant Robertson will also be there, though Bennett does not expect him to give away a lot around his budget intentions.Â
"I would hope he wouldn't give away more to a global audience than he would to a New Zealand audience."
She says that Ardern will also push the importance of keeping New Zealand in mid when she meets with Theresa May tomorrow afternoon.Â
