Summit of the Future Action Days | United Nations

Action Days brought over 7,000 people at United Nations Headquarters ahead of the Summit the Future.
The historic Adoption of the Pact of the Future culminated two Action Days at United Nations Headquarters.

Starting on Friday, thousands of young people along with leaders in the fields of government, civil society, academia and entertainment held a dynamic series of discussions and events on the themes of technology, peace and security and sustainable development and financing.

Here's a look inside.

---------------------

The Summit offers a once-in-a-generation opportunity for change.
It will pave a way to a better tomorrow that we can only shape together.

In support of this vision and objectives, The Summit of the Future Action Days will be convened by the Secretary-General of the United Nations on 20 and 21 September 2024 at United Nations Headquarters in New York to generate additional opportunities for the engagement of all actors.

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 its annexes, and will be critical to implementation.

The Action Days will kick off with a dedicated, youth-led afternoon followed by a Saturday programme which will focus on three priority themes – digital and technology, peace and security, and sustainable development and financing. In addition to the three themes, there will also be a dedicated focus throughout the day on future generations. Expected participants include Heads of State, Ministers, senior UN officials and representatives from the private sector, civil society and other actors.
