📢 Calling all civil society organizations: NGOs, academia, and changemakers!


On May 9-10, the 2024 United Nations Civil Society Conference in Support of the Summit of the Future will take place in Nairobi, Kenya. Ahead of the September Summit of the Future at the UN Headquarters in New York, the 2024 UN Civil Society Conference serves as a pivotal platform for Member States, civil society, academia, and other stakeholders to collaborate in shaping the future of global progress. By convening diverse voices and perspectives, this esteemed event will facilitate discussions and initiatives that contribute to the overarching goals of the Summit of the Future. 


The conference aims to increase awareness for the Summit of the Future and support diverse voices to inform an inclusive Pact for the Future. Fostering collaboration among various sectors, including government, civil society, and the private sector. Undertaken by the UN Department of Global Communications in coordination with civil-society, the conference plans to increase its impact by facilitating and translating multistakeholder’s commitments into tangible actions that drive sustainable change. Lastly, it seeks to create an effective model to innovate the way civil society interacts with intergovernmental processes and showcase an effective model of intergenerational cooperation.
