Journey to the Summit of the Future - Episode 9

In the final episode of Journey to the Summit of the Future, we sit down with Dr. Adam Day, Head of the Geneva Office at the United Nations University Centre for Policy Research.  

As the Summit of the Future approaches in just a few weeks, Dr. Day offers an inside look at what to expect from Member States and the potential adoption of the Pact for the Future. How will this Pact impact our world, and what critical elements are still missing?  

Having supported key research and recommendations for the Secretary-General and Member States through the High Level Advisory Board on Effective Multilateralism, Dr. Day shares his insights on the draft Pact, the issues that could see progress, and the long-term impact we should demand from Member States post-Summit to see a real impact for present and future generations.
