“We need multilateralism that is more inclusive, more effective, and more networked – with stronger links between international institutions and with the people. That means greater representation of developing countries. And it means a stronger voice for all of you and what you represent.”

7. SOUNDBITE (English) António Guterres, Secretary-General, United Nations:
“We will not solve today’s global problems without contributions from all of society. From civil society and young people, delivering change, promoting accountability, demanding better, standing up for truth and justice – and using new technologies to organize for a better world.”

“The Pact for the Future must lay the ground for reform. Reform of the outdated United Nations Security Council – to make it more effective but also more representative of what the world is today. Reform of our international financial institutions – so that they supercharge resources for sustainable development and for climate action. Reform of the rules governing outer space – currently a chaotic free-for-all. And reform how we respond to complex global shocks and work together on peace and security.”

Storyline

Speaking at the opening of the Summit of the Future’s Action Day 2, Secretary-General António Guterres today (21 Sep) said, “we need multilateralism that is more inclusive, more effective, and more networked – with stronger links between international institutions and with the people.”

Guterres said, “we will not solve today’s global problems without contributions from all of society. From civil society and young people, delivering change, promoting accountability, demanding better, standing up for truth and justice – and using new technologies to organize for a better world.”

The Pact for the Future – the expected outcome of the Summit, Guterres said, “must lay the ground for reform. Reform of the outdated United Nations Security Council – to make it more effective but also more representative of what the world is today. Reform of our international financial institutions – so that they supercharge resources for sustainable development and for climate action. Reform of the rules governing outer space – currently a chaotic free-for-all. And reform how we respond to complex global shocks and work together on peace and security.”

Action Day 2 coincides with International Day of Peace, and focusses on multistakeholder partnership and action – paving a way towards a next chapter of multilateralism that is more inclusive and networked.

Also speaking, the President of Jamaica Andrew Holness said, “even as we address the challenges of today, we have an obligation to protect the interests of future generations and ensure that they will inherit a planet in which they can thrive. We must now translate that enthusiasm into action by giving life to the Declaration.”

The Summit of the Future Action Days, convened by the Secretary-General, aim to generate additional opportunities for the engagement of all actors.
