High-level Launch Event of Global Foresight Report…

This event will be informed by the UNEP Global Foresight Report, which offers valuable insights into potential challenges that may hinder environmental sustainability and impede the achievement of the SDGs, posing risks to both planetary health and human wellbeing. It represents the culmination of 18 months of data collection and participatory learning conducted by UNEP in collaboration with partners, reflecting a shift towards a forward-thinking culture as part of "United Nations 2.0" initiative.

The objectives of the event are to discuss key findings and process of the UNEP Global Foresight report and through this discussion to:

1. Explore the role of foresight in furthering the implementation of the 2030 Agenda. We aim to discuss how foresight can facilitate the delivery of sustainable, resilient, and innovative solutions to address the complex environmental challenges we face, as a community, and
2. Outline how foresight methods, processes and approaches can facilitate effective engagement with diverse stakeholders, sectors and communities and hence enable the socialization of sustainability transitions.
