2025<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>[As delivered]<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Excellencies,<\/p>\n<p>Ladies and Gentlemen,<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I thank the Chair of the 63rd Commission for Social Development, Ambassador Krzysztof Maria Szczerski, for the kind invitation to join you today.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Today, we unite around the common cause of strengthening the solidarity, social inclusion and social cohesion in delivering on the 1995 Copenhagen commitments.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Commitments that place people at the heart of development and direct our economies to meet the human needs of everyone, everywhere.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>As we commence the 63rd session, the need for progress is tangible.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>With a mere five years left to achieve the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, we must inject momentum into our social justice and equity aims.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In a world of divisions, we must be clear about the challenges we face.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The impact of geopolitical tensions and climate change, rising health inequities and unresolved debt issues continues to ripple across global economies, tearing at the fabric of our communities and societies.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Over the last decade, the income gap between the haves and the have nots has grown, rising above 20 percent.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>According to the World Bank, almost 700 million people live in extreme poverty today at this moment.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Millions of them are still struggling to return to the living standards they had known before the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>All this while, the latest figures indicate that about 4.5 billion people \u2013 more than half of the world\u2019s population \u2013 are not covered by essential health services.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In 2023, 20 percent of young people were registered as not in employment, education or training \u2013 2 in 3 of them are women.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We must reverse these trends.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>By taking a values-based approach to economic development \u2013 one that prioritizes people and planet over power and profit \u2013 we can indeed quicken our pace to achieve this turnaround.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The social and solidarity economy, which the General Assembly endorsed in December, encompasses these aims and offers a key pathway to sustainable and inclusive growth, one that:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>-\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002Empowers local communities,<\/p>\n<p>-\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002Supports decent work,<\/p>\n<p>-\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002Promotes gender equality, and<\/p>\n<p>-\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002\u2002Prioritises equitable provision of health care and education and ensures social protection systems.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>When every $1 dollar invested in social protection yields $3 dollars of return, measured in improved health and productivity \u2013 we literally have everything to gain.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>It offers our best shot to ensure we leave no one behind.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Excellencies,<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In the words of Nelson Mandela, I quote: \u201cAs long as poverty, injustice, and gross inequality persist in our world, none of us can truly rest.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Second World Summit for Social Development in November will be a key moment to demonstrate what we have learned, assess the gaps, promote human dignity, and offer bold solutions that ensure socially equitable outcomes for future generations.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I thank the Permanent Representatives of Belgium and Morocco for their able leadership, as co-facilitators of the intergovernmental negotiation of the political declaration &#8211; the outcome of the Summit.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Commission\u2019s 63rd session marks a significant juncture in these preparations, and I encourage delegations in their deliberations to extend their outlook towards the Summit by agreeing to the progress we need.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Together, let us embrace solidarity.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Let us pursue innovative economic models and do our utmost, today, to ensure more just and equitable societies for all.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>For until then, none of us can truly rest.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I thank you.<\/p>\n<p>********<\/p>\n<p><strong>Media Contacts<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Sharon Birch<\/strong>,\u00a0Spokesperson for\u00a0the President of the General\u00a0Assembly,\u00a0Tel: +1 212
