During the #SummitoftheFuture, world leaders will adopt the Pact for the Future, laying out how to accelerate existing international commitments, including the #SDGs, and better respond to future challenges. To complement the Pact, participants to the international conference #GLOBALGOALS2024 drew a roadmap with additional strategies and actions to revitalize SDG implementation. 📃 The statement presents reform avenues in relation to (1) Adapting the architecture of global governance; (2) Facilitating national and subnational SDG coordination and governance; (3) Consolidating current goals and recalibrating targets and indicators; and (4) Working towards a paradigm shift in economic policy. 🔗 Access the statement here: https://lnkd.in/dHJW9-5E #GLOBALGOALS2024 #SDGs #SummitoftheFuture #PactfortheFuture #2030Agenda

The #GLOBALGOALS2024 Summer School has concluded today. This program was designed to integrate academic lectures, practical research skills, and experiences with local SDG implementation, fostering an environment for learning and knowledge sharing. Highlights from the final day: - An interdisciplinary lecture by Mara Wendebourg and Yi hyun Kang on the complexities of stakeholder participation followed by a discussion of practical solutions on how to improve it. - Lightning talks and group discussions on the future of sustainability governance with Margarita Gómez and Pamela Chasek, along with insights on youth participation from Bine Liem. - A continuation of futures thinking exercises, led by Fronika de Wit, using backcasting to identify the concrete actions needed to achieve the vision for sustainability governance. We closed out with a final statement outlining key action points, marking the end of the program but not the end of sustainability advocacy. These points will be presented at the #GLOBALGOALS2024 Conference that is starting tomorrow. We hope participants gained new insights, forged new connections, and enjoyed the experience as much as we did organizing it. The learning experience has been mutual, and we are thankful for the diverse perspectives gained from the 26 participants coming from 17 countries.
