School of International Futures (SOIF)’s Post

The UN #SummitoftheFuture and the Wellbeing of Current and Future Generations present a powerful framing and a once-in-a-generation opportunity that is inspiring hope, energy and agency. The Declaration on Future Generations (DFG), due to be adopted at the Summit, signals widespread recognition that short-term crisis management is insufficient to address today’s challenges. It invites governments and multilateral organisations to instead prioritise long-term thinking in policy and planning. But how do we turn this ambition into concrete action and impact? ✨📘 So today, SOIF is launching the Implementation Handbook for the UN Declaration on Future Generations! 📘✨ There are many innovators around the world who are already making visible changes in governing for the long term. We've drawn on research and interviews with hundreds of changemakers across more than 50 countries to produce an Implementation Handbook, outlining a practical roadmap for national-level champions—policymakers and civil society—to embed intergenerational fairness and long-term governance principles into their national strategies.

Exciting news! The UN #SummitoftheFuture concludes today with a huge outcome: the Pact for the Future has officially been passed, marking a historic step forward for future generations. We now begin the real work of embedding long-term governance and ensuring future generations are central to decision-making. This milestone will reshape how we address our biggest challenges, with the UN Declaration on Future Generations leading the way. Now is the time to move beyond silos and crisis management toward governance systems that are long-term and participatory. 🔗 Pact for the Future - https://lnkd.in/gQjZMj6D 🔗 Declaration on Future Generations - https://lnkd.in/ebmzTuCS Yesterday, we launched the Implementation Handbook for the UN Declaration on Future Generations, outlining a practical roadmap for policymakers and civil society to embed intergenerational fairness and long-term governance into national strategies.

Today, December 10th, as we observe Global #HumanRightsDay, in the joint high-level plenary session with United Nations Environment Programme Finance Initiative (UNEP FI), and in conversation with Nik Gowing - Thinking the Unthinkable, Elisabeth Stern - KlimaSeniorinnen Switzerland, and Mary Robinson - The Elders Foundation, Mary reminded us of a critical shared truth: The Right to a Healthy Environment and a Resilient Future is a Human Right. 🌿
