The international research conference GLOBALGOALS2024 will launch a Conference Statement ‘The Future of the SDGs’, which will be agreed during the conference and widely published afterwards, pointing the way towards reforms that governments and other actors might take during the UN Summit of the Future and policy processes in the following years.

All registered authors of papers presented at the GLOBALGOALS2024 conference are invited to join the drafting process of this Conference Statement and to be listed in any further publication of this statement, if they so wish.

The drafting process involves three key steps:

1. A survey distributed to all registered conference participants to gather their perspectives on the future of the SDGs.
2. Online workshops with conference participants to discuss the survey results
3. A comment phase on the draft statement leading up to the conference

The draft version of the conference statement is available here. This is a dynamic document and will be frequently updated with received feedback from conference participants. Please provide us with your feedback by sending an email to globalgoals2024@uu.nl, clearly stating the line number of your modifications and/or amendments.
