Summit of the Future Debrief
After the Summit of the Future, participate in a virtual debrief organized by Cepei and IISD.
This week, world leaders gathered at the United Nations for the Summit of the Future to reinvigorate action in addressing global challenges and harnessing opportunities for the benefit of current and future generations. “We are here to bring multilateralism back from the brink,” said UN Secretary-General António Guterres in his opening remarks. The Summit's outcome documents—the Pact for the Future, the Global Digital Compact, and Declaration on Future Generations—were adopted, though not without drama.
As Summit attendees head home, engage with leading SDGs practitioners to delve into the Summit’s main messages and explore what follows as we head into the final five years for achieving the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
Featuring insights from:
- Philipp Schönrock, Director, Cepei (moderator)

- Carole Osero-Ageng’o, Global Initiatives Lead & Africa Regional Representative HelpAge International, Co-Chair, UN Civil Society Conference in Support of the Summit of the Future
