In December, the Starling Institute brought together leaders and experts of global NGOs and think tanks and a handful of member state representatives, and at the Rockaway Hotel to discuss follow-up actions to the Summit of the Future. Participants explored how to maintain momentum on multilateral cooperation that delivers for people in the coming months and years. The retreat provided a space to collectively assess the shifting political environment for multilateral cooperation, identify the most transformative outcomes from the Summit, recognize what’s missing, and understand how political changes impact the process. Participants also discussed how to build the political capital needed to turn agreements into action and how they might work together in the coming months and years.
