"In short, we need greater global solidarity today and with future generations; better management of critical issues of global concern; and an upgraded United Nations that can meet the challenges of a new era." - UN Secretary-General (Summit of the Future Global Call - 12th September 2024)
The Summit of the Future 2024
The upcoming Summit of the Future event is scheduled to take place next week over two days at the United Nations headquarters in New York.
Summit of the Future - Overview
Summary
Is there a better way to shape our world? And how can we achieve a fairer future, in the face of so much global upheaval and conflict?
Description
The Summit of the Future stands as a once in a lifetime opportunity for the international community to forge a new path, for the benefit of all.
Summit of the Future - Global Call
On the 12th of September 2024 world leaders participated in a "Global Call" to outline their hopes and aspirations ahead of the Summit of the Future.
The President of the Republic of Namibia, Nangolo Mbumba, and the Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany, Olaf Scholz, invited Heads of State and Government to join the virtual live event "Summit of the Future Global Call". The opening addresses by the UN Secretary-General António Guterres and the President of the UN General Assembly Philemon Yang succinctly set the scene for the upcoming summit.

An additional 47 leaders also share their hopes and aspirations for the summit on this Global Call (Individual videos are available - https://lnkd.in/egkUkFYS ). Listening to all 49 of these global leaders express their views, one could almost be forgiven for believing that the issues already raised via the Project P.O.P.E. initiative are having a positive influence on the summit agenda.
The Project P.O.P.E. Initiative
It is however imperative that this global summit is also successful in considering and effectively addressing the critical issues already highlighted by?the Project P.O.P.E. initiative.
1. Preservation of Planet Earth (P.O.P.E.) - Leaflet
The preservation of our planet for future generations (our children and our grandchildren) will require a global solidarity of purpose. (February 2023)
2. Project P.O.P.E. - Preservation of Planet Earth
The preservation of Planet Earth for future generations involves preserving, protecting, and defending our planet against destruction on behalf of our children and our grandchildren. Each one of us has a part to play as it will require a global solidarity of purpose. (February 2023)
3. Planet Governance - Working Paper
Given the existential dangers currently manifesting themselves it is now incumbent on our world leaders to view this planet of ours in terms of a single interconnected entity which needs to be governed accordingly (before it is too late). Now more than ever sound governance is critical for the preservation of Planet Earth. (May 2023)

4. Planet Governance: Why Good Governance is Critical for Planet Preservation
This paper is intended to be thought provoking. It requires the reader to be willing to stretch outside of their comfort zone and to start to think outside the box in terms of the governance challenges facing Planet Earth. It certainly raises a number of difficult and uncomfortable questions which need to be both considered and addressed. In the process it also raises a number of serious concerns about the current approach to the governance of our planet. (June 2023)
5. United Nations 2023
The United Nations (UN) represents the international governing body with primary responsibility for helping to ensure the preservation of Planet Earth for future generations. (November 2023)
6. Clandestine Influence
As we enter 2024 with some trepidation, the threat of clandestine influence represents a clear and present danger to Corporate Governance, Planet Governance, and by implication Planet Preservation. (December 2023)
7. Pre-Mortem of an A.I. Scandal(s)
"This pre-mortem simply cannot be allowed to develop into a post-mortem!” (February 2024)
8. AI Safety Roadmap
Sustainable AI Value = AI Value Creation + AI Value Preservation. (June 2024)
9. Global Guardians in a World of Growing Unrest
In times of crisis and chaos we rely on our guardians to preserve, protect, and defend us against the dangers that may lie ahead. (August 2024)
Shaping Our Common Future
The Summit of the Future clearly presents us with a unique set of circumstances and it is incumbent upon all our leaders to collectively make the most of it. There's simply too much at stake to sit this one out.
A Window of Opportunity and Necessity
The Danish PM, Mette Frederiksen, in her address rightly points out that the summit represents both our window of opportunity and our window of necessity.
Statement by the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Denmark (1.44 mins)
Multilateral Solutions for a Better Tomorrow
Clearly a better tomorrow will require significant improvements to our current approach to multilateralism. A better future for all of humanity will require not only better guardianship but also better stewardship and above all, better leadership.
Our leaders need to show the maturity, capacity, and capability to make the most of the unique set of circumstances presented by this summit and to take full advantage of this golden opportunity!
Let us hope that the Summit of the Future proves to be successful in its endeavours.
