Summary
Generating impact from Summit outcomes requires intentional partnerships and actions for follow up in the next 12 months. How can we get there? Who needs to be engaged? Which partnerships do we build?
Description
Drawing on five years of experience and lessons learned from the UN2020 campaign, the Global Futures Forum, regional thematic dialogues, the 2024 UN Civil Society Conference (UNCSC) and the drafting of the People’s Pact for the Future, this event seeks to highlight major new initiatives in the “Pact for the Future,” the “Global Digital Compact,” and the “Declaration on Future Generations,” and their potential areas for impact, implementation and follow up.
This side event will aim to promote networked and inclusive multistakeholder action toward the follow up from the Summit of the Future, including exploring Pact for the Future commitments, new global agreements, future investment and action, forums for collaboration, and advancing the global agenda for a sustainable future. The event focuses on a 12 month timeline of what key moments and action will, and should, take place from now till the next UNGA High-Level week, with an eye toward the proposed review at the 83rd session.

To generate additional opportunities for the engagement of all actors, the Secretary-General of the United Nations is convening the Summit of the Future Action Days on 20 and 21 September 2024 at United Nations Headquarters in New York.
Bringing together representatives from Member States, civil society, private sector, academia, local and regional authorities, youth, and many more, the Action Days will provide an opportunity for broad engagement and inclusion. These stakeholders have all played a key role in shaping the Pact for the Future and will be critical to its implementation.
Side events provide further insights and opportunities for multi-stakeholder collaboration.
