For over a year, countries have struggled to address a pandemic that respects no borders, destroys lives and livelihoods, and deepens pre-existing global challenges like inequality, climate change and education.
With less than a decade left to meet the UN Sustainable Development Goals, the Forum's fully virtual Sustainable Development Impact Summit 2021 (20-23 September) will bring together global leaders from diverse sectors, disciplines and geographies.
Ensuring the world exits the pandemic stronger than it entered it will only be possible if leaders work together across sectors and borders to share and deploy know-how, innovation and promising approaches to accelerate the recovery.
