Sustainability holds the promise of a better future, but to build that future we need to imagine it, remove the barriers that undermine the necessary cooperation to make it possible, and use all the levers that contribute to progress. We need to ensure that all participants are involved in a meaningful way. The future doesn’t just belong to us. Committing to safeguarding the interests of future generations is a key component of sustainable development.
The panel discussion will bring together different stakeholders, including the private sector, financial institutions, scientific and academic communities, local authorities, youth representatives and other civil society actors.
