Summit of the Future
The Summit is a high-level event, bringing world leaders together to forge a new international consensus on how we deliver a better present and safeguard the future.
​
Effective global cooperation is increasingly critical to our survival but difficult to achieve in an atmosphere of mistrust, using outdated structures that no longer reflect today’s political and economic realities. This once-in-a-generation opportunity serves as a moment to mend eroded trust and demonstrate that international cooperation can effectively achieve agreed goals and tackle emerging threats and opportunities.
​
In September, world leaders will convene at the United Nations to adopt the Pact for the Future, which will include a Global Digital Compact and a Declaration on Future Generations as annexes.
The Pact will move towards a reinvigorated multilateral system, re-build trust, and get us back on track to achieve the 2030 Agenda.
The Global Digital Compact is expected to “outline shared principles for an open, free and secure digital future for all”.
The Declaration will outline specific steps to account for the interests of future generations in national and global decision making.
