Network of Global Agenda Councils

The World Economic Forum is forming Global Agenda Councils on the foremost topics in the global arena. For each of these topics, the Forum will convene the most innovative and relevant leaders to capture the best knowledge on each key issue and integrate it into global collaboration and decision-making processes.

Global Agenda Councils represent transformational innovation in global governance, creating multistakeholder groups composed of the most innovative and influential minds for the purpose of advancing knowledge as well as collaboratively developing solutions for the most crucial issues on the global agenda.

Global Agenda Councils will challenge prevailing assumptions, monitor trends, map interrelationships and address knowledge gaps. Equally important, Global Agenda Councils will also propose solutions, devise strategies and evaluate the effectiveness of actions using measurable benchmarks.

In a global environment marked by short-term orientation and silo-thinking, Global Agenda Councils will foster interdisciplinary and long-range thinking to address the prevailing challenges on the global agenda.

The formation of Global Agenda Councils marks a major milestone in the Forum’s evolution towards becoming the “integrator, manager and disseminator of the best knowledge available in the world.” These Councils build upon a unique strength of the Forum: its extraordinary ability to convene the very best of the world’s thought leaders. The Global Agenda Councils will also leverage the world’s greatest minds to develop a better understanding of the leading issues of the day and how they will shape the future.
