An Open Conversation On The Future Of Internationalism…

The post-war order was built on the idea that countries are stronger and more secure when they work together. Anchored by the United Nations, this system is defined by cooperation, open trade, international law and development assistance to promote peace, prosperity, human rights and collective response to global challenges.

Today, the world is more interconnected than ever. AI, climate change, migration, pandemics and financial instability all transcend borders. Yet the institutions designed to manage shared challenges face questions about their legitimacy and ability to act.

As the race for new UN leadership enters its final stretch and the international community begins to consider what comes next, this is a moment for an honest, unscripted conversation about the future of multilateralism.

Join Project Everyone, The Future of Development Cooperation Coalition and The Observer for a special town-hall event to discuss what the future of internationalism could and should look like. Moderated by The Observer's Editor-In-Chief James Harding.
