In an , ²ÝÁñÊÓƵ-INWEH Director Kaveh Madani outlines key ways the Summit of the Future will touch every corner of our lives, today and tomorrow.

"In less than a week (September 22-23), the Summit of the Future will bring the world leaders to the United Nations Headquarters in New York to produce the Pact for the Future. This inter-governmentally negotiated pact is supposed to offer an actionable roadmap to a better present and future for all.

"The Summit is considered a once-in-a-generation opportunity to forge a new consensus on what the future of humanity and nature should be like and what needs to be done to secure it. This event will be a critical step toward a reinvigorated multilateralism that enhances cooperation on critical challenges, addresses the current gaps in global governance and positively impacts our lives.

"The world leaders have some important decisions to make and their choices. Their decisions can pave the way for a future breakdown or a breakthrough to a better world for everyone. If you care about our lives, our world, and our future, you should care about this landmark event."
